Problems installing iAS 6.0 SP3 (Test Drive) on Win2000 (SP1 or SP2)?

Hi Raj,

First of all, as far as i know, the installer for iAS-TestDrive-Sp3 deosn't

allow you to choose any admin password or ports, it has a set of defaults for

passwords -

iAS Admin server

Username : admin

password : admin

Directory server admin (Netscape Console)

username(for both user and configuration directory) : admin

password(for both user and configuration directory) : admin

Directory server Manager

Distinguished Name(DN) : cn=Directory Manager

password : DManager

However if you have any problems with the defaults than you change the iAS admin

password -

- just open the netscape console - from Start/Programs/iPlanet Server

Products/NetscapeConsole.

- give the password and port number,

- click on the Users and Groups and type "NAS Administrator" in the search

field, (it will show you two users with User ID),

- select the second one (User ID = admin) and choose edit,

- now change the password to the required one, and use this user name and

password for admin tool and deployment tool.

Hope this will help, if you have any further problems please feel free to mail

me.

Sanjeev.
