OK, I'm going to just shoot this out to the list as I go along and discover things - hope follks don't mind. But it is an easy if clumsy way to document this for the next person to come along. If anyone can recommend a doc that will get me through this on Centos, please do
On Centos I've found /usr/share/dirsrv/html as well as /usr/share/dirsrv/data
I look in the latter and there seem to be interesting things that I'd like to show up in http://sandbox1:9830/ But they do not. BTW, when I go to that URL it immediately forwards me to : http://sandbox1:9830/dist/download
If I cd to the HTML dir above and then do : [root@sandbox1 html]# ln -s ../data/admserv_dsgw.html .
And refresh my web browser, I now get a new item showing up in that page. Directory Server Gateway Search for and edit directory entries.
This appears to be what I am looking for, but when I cilck it I go to a location which does not exist : http://sandbox1:9830/clients/dsgw/bin/lang?context=dsgw
Doing the following also puts more entries on the web page, but none of the links work [root@sandbox1 html]# ln -s ../data/admserv_orgchart.html . [root@sandbox1 html]# ln -s ../data/admserv_phonebook.html .

Although it does have a directory with the HTML and other files : [root@sandbox1 dirsrv]# pwd /usr/share/dirsrv
This is not what I see when I got to http://myserver:9830/
I'll keep poking around, but am sending this in case anyone out there already knows how to do this on Centos.
I'll start over on the Red Hat docs now ...

Right. That won't work. Please remove those links. You must install the fedora-ds-dsgw package - as you have discovered, there is no centos-ds-dsgw package, but the fedora-ds-dsgw package should work with centos-ds-base and centos-ds-admin.

OK, looks like FC6 was the last release to have the RPMs here :
http://directory.fedoraproject.org/yum/dirsrv/fedora/
IIRC, Centos5.x is based on FC7 is that right?
Where would I get RPMs?
OK, I got this RPM http://directory.fedoraproject.org/yum/dirsrv/fedora/6/x86_64/RPMS/389-dsgw-... and it installed fine. I ran the config /usr/sbin/setup-ds-dsgw and it said it went OK.
So I got to the web GUI now and see something different which looks like that wiki page. I can find me in there (the only user at present) and authenticate. But I see no option anywhere to change my password.
