Installation : 
 
In the following examples <SERVER ROOT> stands for the directory where
 the Directory Server product has been installed.
 
 For UNIX (Solaris, AIX, HP-UX, Linux) :
 
     Close all console windows.
 
     Unpack the compressed tar archive :
       > uncompress 122476-01.tar
       > tar -xvf 122476-01.tar
       > cd  122476-01
 
     Run the install script :
 
       > ./install_script <SERVER ROOT>
 
       Note: /install_script script must be executed by the unix user of the <SERVER ROOT> owner.
 
 
For Windows :
 
	There is no install script for Windows, follow these instructions
 
     Close all console windows.
     Close the event viewer.
 
     Unpack the zip archive :
       > mkdir <MyDirectory>
       > cd <MyDirectory>
       > cp <PATCH PATH>\122476-01\WINNT\Hotfix.zip  .
       > unzip <ZIP file>
 
     There is no install script for Windows:
 
       > stop all server insances
       > backup the file <SERVER ROOT>\bin\slapd\server\libslapd.dll
       > copy the file <MyDirectory>\WINNT\bin\slapd\server\libslapd.dll to <SERVER ROOT>\bin\slapd\server\libslapd.dll
       > start all server insances
 
 
  Notes :
 
    1. The directory into which the archive has been copied must be writeable.
 
    2. On Windows platforms, user must be the administrator or a member of the administrators group.
 
    3. On Solaris with native package installations, the installation of further patches has
       to use the "-u" option since this patch does modify a binary in the package installation
