389 Directory Server is an open-source application that provides centralized authentication, authorization, and identity management services to users and computers on a network. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing 389 Directory Server on Fedora CoreOS Latest.
Before we begin, it is essential to update your system with the latest packages and dependencies.
sudo dnf update -y
To install a 389 Directory Server, you need to first add the EPEL repository.
sudo dnf install -y epel-release
Now you can proceed to install the 389 Directory Server package.
sudo dnf install -y 389-ds-base
After installation, start the 389 Directory Server service.
sudo systemctl start dirsrv.target
By default, the 389 Directory Server is configured to run on port 389. Before you can manage the Server, you need to bind to it by providing your login credentials.
To bind to the Directory Server, use the following command:
sudo ldapsearch -x -D "cn=Directory Manager" -W
You will be prompted to enter the password for the Directory Manager. Once authenticated, you should see the Server’s configuration in your console.
Congratulations, you have successfully installed and bound to the 389 Directory Server on Fedora CoreOS Latest. You can now proceed to configure the Server according to your project's requirements.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
