Obtain the latest platform-specific archive files for iManager install. These files are available from the Novell Developer Support Web site .
Include the iManager install archive as part of your product install. This can be done in multiple ways, including as an expanded directory hierarchy on your CD; bundled with your application installer for later extraction; or downloaded during the application install, then extracted.
Alternatively, you can extract only those iManager RPMs needed by your application and include those as part of your application installation. All iManager RPMs are in the packages folder of the archive. The iManager RPM includes a dependency list for the required RPMs that can help you determine whether an RPM is necessary for your particular situation. All plug-in RPMs in the packages folder are installed.
NOTE:Using the RPMs to install iManager does not configure Tomcat. The Tomcat server.xml file (located in /var/opt/novell/tomcat5/conf) must be modified. If needed, you can also change port numbers.
Once you have completed the RPM installation, edit or create the following configuration file, which ensures that administrative rights are properly configured for use with eDirectory:
/var/opt/novell/iManager/nps/WEB-INF/configiman.properties
The configiman.properties file should specify the list of authorized users, in the following form: user.context.treename=eDir. For example:
admin.lab.LAB_TREE=eDir
