Dear Fedora Directory community,

I'm help my PL migrating Fedora directory server(storing employees info and Linux user accounts) from 389-ds(1.1.x) to FreeIPA(1.2.2). I backed up from the command line using the db2bak command-line script. I got two LDIF files and two folders(userRoot and NetscapeRoot) which contains many db4 files.

After reading the FreeIPA Administrator Guide, I realized there is no db2bak or bak2db commands for FreeIPA users. So I copy those LDIF files and folders to /var/lib/dirsrv/<ds instance> directly. Then I run service dirsvr restart, the dirsvr instance cannot start anymore. The instance names of 389-ds and FreeIPA are different.

So I want to learn more about 389-ds server. I run yum install 389-ds in Fedora 9 i386. I got message: No package 389-ds available. My system is already updated. What's the new name of the 389-ds package?

How can I finish this hard job? Have anybody ever migrated successfully? I need your help..

Best Regards,
Michael
