Sun One Directory Server 5.2 download

[Universe1418]

Hi,

Do you know where I can download the Sun One Directory Server 5.2? I need to test install it into a windows 2008 server but cannot find in the web on where I can directly get it. Oracle Website seems to not have it on their product list.

Hoping for your advises! Thank You!

Hi,

Sun One Directory Server 5.2 is a very old version - I doubt you can get it from Oracle any longer. It used to be included in Cognos Series 7 installs up until the 7.4.4 release - if you can find an old version of Impromptu or PowerPlay somewhere that might be your best bet. Here's the notice that it could no longer be shipped by IBM:

Even if you do manage to find the install, I'm sad to say you won't get it to work on Windows Server 2008. Many have tried, and nobody has succeeded to my knowledge.

You're probably going to need to look at an alternative LDAP provider. You can find some ideas of which ones to look at here:
