To Run the Directory Server as a Non-Root User

On UNIX, MFDS can run as a non-root user on a port number equal or greater than 1024. When running MFDS as a non-root user you must consider the following:

You can use the CCITCP2_PORT environment variable to bind to a non-standard port, but this option should be used with caution, as some programs depend on Directory Server using the default port (86). If you do set CCITCP2_PORT, ensure it is set in the environment for Enterprise Server regions and COBOL programs which use the directory server.
