15Accessing HTTPSTK When DS Is<br />
Not Loaded<br />
You can set up a preconfigured admin user that allows access to the HTTP Protocol Stack<br />
(HTTPSTK) when DS is not loaded. The preconfigured admin user, SAdmin, has rights that are<br />
equivalent to the <strong>eDirectory</strong> Admin User object. If the server is in a state where <strong>eDirectory</strong> is not<br />
functioning correctly, you can log in to the server as this user and perform all the diagnostic and<br />
debugging tasks necessary that do not require <strong>eDirectory</strong>.<br />
• Section 15.1, “Setting the SAdmin Password on NetWare,” on page 83<br />
• Section 15.2, “Setting the SAdmin Password on Windows,” on page 83<br />
• Section 15.3, “Setting the SAdmin Password on Linux, Solaris, and AIX,” on page 84<br />
15.1 Setting the SAdmin Password on NetWare<br />
Use NetWare Remote Manager to enable the SAdmin User object and set or change the password<br />
for this object. HTTPSTK.NLM must be running on the <strong>eDirectory</strong> server in order for you to set or<br />
change the SAdmin password.<br />
1 Open a Web browser.<br />
2 In the address (URL) field, enter the following:<br />
http://server’s TCP/IP address:port<br />
For example:<br />
http://137.65.123.11:8008<br />
NOTE: The default alternate port number is 8008. If you have changed this value on the<br />
Configuration page in NetWare Remote Manager, make sure you enter the new port number.<br />
If you have Domain Name Services (DNS) installed on your network for server name-to-IP<br />
address resolution, you can also enter the server’s DNS name instead of the IP address.<br />
3 Specify a username, context, and password.<br />
4 Click the Configure button Description: Configure button > Enable Emergency Account<br />
(SADMIN User) and Set Password.<br />
5 Specify an SAdmin password, then verify the password you just entered.<br />
6 Click Set.<br />
15.2 Setting the SAdmin Password on Windows<br />
Use the DHOST remote manager page (accessible through the /dhost URL or from the root page) to<br />
set the SAdmin password. dhost.exe must be running on the <strong>eDirectory</strong> server in order for you to set<br />
or change the SAdmin password.<br />
