Installation Wizard, Pt. 1

This section describes steps to take to begin the second phase of installing CMS4 on either Solaris or NT systems.

Start Netscape Console.

Login to the Admin Server.

Start the installation wizard.

These instructions assume that you have already completed the first phase of installation by running the setup program. This section describes the second phase of installation.

CMS4 Admin Guide, Installation Wizard

Login To Netscape Console

To begin running the Installation Wizard, you must first follow these steps:
  1.  Start Netscape Console:

    On a Windows NT system, click on the Start in the lower left-hand corner of your screen, then choose Programs, then Netscape Server Products, then Netscape Console 4.1. Alternatively, click the Netscape Console shortcut in the Netscape Server Products directory that opens on your desktop after setup completes.

    On a Solaris system, open a command window and issue these commands:

    cd /usr/netscape/server4
    ./startconsole

    This should produce the Netscape Console login window.

  2.  Log in as admin, using the password admin. Note the administrative URL includes the port number of the Admin Server which should have been set to 17001 during setup.


    Figure 4.3

    The main window of Netscape Console appears.

  3.  Double-click on the icon representing your computer in the white area on the left-hand side of the Console window (under Default View). This should expose some new icons; click on the one labeled Server Group.


    Figure 4.4

  4.  Double-click on the CMS icon. This icon should be labeled with the CMS instance name you chose during setup.

  5.  In the Netscape Certificate Management System panel at the right, click Open.
    After a few moments, the Installation Wizard should appear. You'll need to use the wizard to issue the initial certificates and complete installation of this instance of CMS4.

    In the future when you click on the CMS icon, you won't have to use the wizard.

In the next section we'll step through the Installation Wizard's configuration questions.
