Platform: solaris SunOS sunfirev240 5.10
We installed the sun one directory server 5.2 using the java enterprise installer. When we try to log into the conosole, we are getting an error which says either the password is wrong or the directory has a problem. Did anyone encounter this kind of a problem before ?
If so, what was the resolution ?
thanks

Some basic checklists.
The console depends on admin server process, and the admin server process requires (depends) some LDAP data info from the DS (slapd), make sure you start slapd FIRST, THEN admin server, and check the log of slapd to make sure it is running well.
Make sure /etc/hosts at the client where admin console is run contains the FQDN Fully Quailfied Domain Name of DS.
ALSO, /etc/hosts at the DS contains FQDN of admin console client , due to the fact that the default access restriction to admin server is set to something like "*.domain.com", when DNS is not in place, /etc/hosts helps to resolve the FQDN.
