OpenDJ is an open source directory server that provides LDAP and DSML services with a REST interface. In this tutorial, we will guide you on how to install OpenDJ on NetBSD.
Open your SSH client and log in to your NetBSD server.
Copy the OpenDJ package to the server using the following command:
scp opendj-x.x.x.zip root@your-server-ip:/root
Note: Replace x.x.x with the version number of the OpenDJ package.
Unzip the OpenDJ package using the following command:
unzip opendj-x.x.x.zip
Note: Replace x.x.x with the version number of the OpenDJ package.
Change the current working directory to the OpenDJ directory:
cd opendj-x.x.x
Note: Replace x.x.x with the version number of the OpenDJ package.
Run the installation script using the command:
./setup
The setup will start with a welcome message, followed by license agreement, and then you will be asked to choose the installation directory. Choose /opt/opendj as the installation directory and press Enter to continue.
After that, the script will ask you for the Administrator user's password. Set the password and confirm it.
After installation completes, you can start OpenDJ using the following command:
/opt/opendj/bin/start-ds
To stop OpenDJ, use the following command:
/opt/opendj/bin/stop-ds
Verify that OpenDJ is running by accessing the administration panel at the following URL:
http://your-server-ip:8080/admin
Congratulations! You have successfully installed OpenDJ directory server on NetBSD. Now you can use it for LDAP, DSML, and REST services.
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!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
