Directory Package Installation Options

If you choose to install Directory interactively, you can choose between running a typical and a custom installation, as follows:

Typical installation—The installation process installs all components and the default values are used.
Custom installation—You can select which components to install, and can change the values of the items listed in the table.

We recommend that you choose a custom installation, using the values in the following table:

Directory Information	Recommendation	Comments and Description
License Agreement	Read, and accept it if you agree.	On UNIX systems, you need to show you have read the license, before you accept.
Setup Type	Custom	A custom installation lets you choose which components to install.
Installation Location	Accept the default.
Program Features	Accept the default, which installs these components: DXserver Documentation	If you do not install a component and you later find that you need it, run this installation wizard again and add that component. The rest of the Directory installation will be unaffected.
DXmanager Hostname	If you do not have a specific host, enter the local host machine. If you do not use DXmanager, this is not used.	This is the computer that contains the DXmanager installation that you trust. You can change this when you install DXmanager.
Port	Accept the default (2123). Use the same port on every Directory package host. If you do not use DXmanager, this is not used.	This port is used for LDAP communication between DXadmind and DXmanager. You need to enter this port number when you set up a backbone in DXmanager. You can change this when you install DXmanager.
Password	Enter a password Use the same password on every Directory package host. If you do not use DXmanager, this is not used.	This is the password that DXmanager uses to communicate to DXadmind. You need to enter this password when you set up a backbone in DXmanager.
