Summary: Java Enterprise System User Questions

So, I haven't really got this fixed/explained, but I did get two
responses that I appreciate that illuminated other areas for me.

>>>>>
Your ldap setup is configured incorrectly. You either
have o=foo.bar.edu or you have dc=foo,dc=bar,dc=edu.
You shouldn't have both.
Right now what you have is the top level org tree is
called int.crowncollege.edu with subcomponents that
flow down from that called int, crowncollege, and edu.
The correct synatx therefore would be:
"ldapsearch -b "o=int.crowncollege.edu
dc=int,dc=crowncollege, dc=edu" -s
sub "uid=*""
You'd have to specify both the toplevel org and the
subsequent subcomponents.
I'd suggest you reinit your LDAP tree without the o
(it's deprecated anyway) and use subcomponent naming
schema for the base DN.
>>>>>

On this one, I realize that I shouldn't have it that way. However,
after running the config-iscli tool, the o= section was added. I ran
the search the way specified, however, it returns no results.
comm_admin does return results for the same area though.

>>>>>

Derek Diget had a few things to check such as using Schema 2 and
specifying the correct Base DN. I did those. He had these two good
side notes as well. They've come in pretty handy.

One thing to do is invoke the installer with the "-saveState" switch.
This creates an state file of your settings and then you can actually
do an unattended install using this file.

Also, see ims.balius.com for a user site dedicated to Sun messaging
server.  It also has a link to the Info-iMS user mailing list.
