Daniel,

You may safely ignore "/usr/local" in the examples -- just use
whatever is the LDM user's home directory.

> 2.      After I get the host name and boundary/firewall modification for port

I'm not sure what you're asking.  If port 388 is untouched by your
firewall rules, then all is good and there's nothing more you need
do regarding that issue.

Yes.
