    Hi All,

    During the Lawson Core technology LSF9 installation, there is a step for 'Configuring Resource Management' where a valid DN is required.

    We have created a valid DN by copying an existing DN, which was imported from an existing LDAP instance ( for test purpose).

    We would like to CREATE a valid and empty DN for the new installation of LSF9.

    Is there a easy way to create this DN?

    The tool 'Tivoli Diectory Server Web Administration tool' looks quite complexe for this task.

    We just want a simple, empty DN for LSF9 installation.

    We are running on HP-UX, IBM Tivoli LDAP.

    TIA for your inputs.

      I posted the same topic on Secu Admin forum. then got some tips.

      here are steps to do :
      Create one DN with idsxcfg first, it will be empty
      -> Manage Suffix
      Create a Suffix here : o=lwsn,ou=law1,dc=ABC

      Then use the Tivoli LDAP console

      http://:12100/IDSWebApp/IDSjsp/Login.jsp
      LDAP Hostname = :389
      user: cn=root
      password = xxxxxxx

      diectory management -> Add an Entries , from ‘Structural onject Class’ dropdown list chose Organization -> Next
      on next screen, left 'selected' Empty, simply click Next
      On next screen, in Relative DN put o=lwsn,ou=law1,dc=ABC
      Optional attribut : lwsn -> Finish

      diectory management -> Manage Entries to verify that the new entry was created

      Then during the LSF9 installation, the created DN can be used
