New to IdM 7

I am just starting to learn as well. I began with the Sun Identity Manager 7.0 installation guide. Unfortunately, I found many inaccuracies or missing items in the documentation. I installed using MSSQL, Tomcat, and IIS on a Windows 2003 server. Just some of my issues were:

- I had to break the MSSQL table creation script into small parts and run them. The large single script kept erroring out and I could not make work.

- Some of the environment variables were mentioned for UNIX, but not windows. They were needed in Windows too.

- Additional details needed in Tomcat install process.

- A few vague references to directory paths and files that could have been clearer.

- Should have better indiciated what needed to be done to IIS and when to do it.

A few years back I had installed IIS and MSSQL, so it took a bit to dust off my memory. All in all, just to get it installed took me (a non-application guy) about 3 days to get up and running. If you have any specifics along the way, post them and I will try and help you with what I learned.

As for using it, I am now trying to figure out how to customize the forms. I wish someone (besides sun) would write a tutorial...
