Creating a New Profile

To create a new profile, run /etc/ldapux/config/setup. When setup asks you for the distinguished name (DN) of the profile, give a DN that does not exist and setup will prompt you for the parameters to build a new profile. The setup program also configures the local client to use the new profile.

Alternatively, you could use your directory administration tools to make a copy of an existing profile and modify it.

You can also use the interactive tool create_profile_entry to create a new profile as follows:

cd /opt/ldapux/config
./create_profile_entry

Once you create a new profile, configure client systems to use it as described in “Changing Which Profile a Client is Using”.
