[Fedora-directory-users] Fedora DS 1.0.4 build on Solaris 10?

/home/dings/fds/alias does exist. I am starting FDS by using start-slapd
as root user. /home/dings/fds/alias is writable by the server. It looks
like start-slapd is looking for some certificate under
/home/dings/fds/alias. I checked the content under /home/dings/alias. It
contains only one file: libnssckbi.so.

Does the directory /home/dings/fds/alias exist?  Is it owned by the
server user?  Is it writable by the server user?
