The following table lists the assumptions made by the Express installation. If you
would like to use different installation settings, use Typical or Custom installation.
After installing, you can configure the server to use LDAP users and groups, and to
use a JDK. For more information on how to make these changes, see the iPlanet Web
Server Administrator’s Guide.
