Apache Directory Server

**wmorri** · 10-07-2008, 01:06 PM

Hi,

I am wondering how to install the Apache Directory Server on Ubuntu. I know that you can download and install it from here. But my issue is that they don't have a .deb file. I am at a loss as to how to compile if it if that is what I need to do.

They have a description on the website that reads:

Quote:

Installing on Linux
If you want to install ApacheDS as daemon in /etc/init.d, you need root privileges.
There are two posibilities installing ApacheDS on Linux:

using the Debian package
using the RPM package
using the jar file

If anyone can help me with this it would be greatly appriciated. I am trying to learn about active directory and how to use one, and as I am a linux user at heart I thought that this would be a great way to start.

Cheers!
