2 - Server Configuraion

We will now describe the server configuration. Usually, all the configuration changes are done using Apache Directory Studio, which offers a pretty GUI. One can also update server configuration using LDAP operations, as the configuration is stored in the DIT. Note that the server must be restarted after modifying the configuration.

We will then describe the installation layout (ie, how the various files are stored on the disk).
