[389-users] How to add "dc=myExample,dc=com": Basic doubt

[Noriko Hosoi]

Please take a look at this doc:
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Administration_Guide/Configuring_Directory_Databases.html#Configuring_Directory_Databases-Creating_and_Maintaining_Suffixes

You need to create a suffix *"dc=myExample,dc=com" *following the 
instructions described in this section (if you use command line interface).
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Directory_Server/9.0/html/Administration_Guide/Configuring_Directory_Databases.html#Creating_Suffixes-Creating_Root_and_Sub_Suffixes_from_the_Command_Line

In the Example 2.1, The mapping tree entry dn is represented as follows:

    dn: cn=dc=example\,dc=com,cn=mapping tree,cn=config

This works, but it is an old format.  Please replace it with this dn in 
the Example 2.1.

    dn: cn="dc=example,dc=com",cn=mapping tree,cn=config

Thanks,
