Appendix P. Installing and uninstalling GSKit manually on Windows operating systems

If you install Tivoli Directory Server using silent installation, and have not opted for GSKit installation, you can use the following procedure to install it.

To install GSKit 8:

1. Change directories to the \gskit directory on the Tivoli Directory Server DVD or the tdsV6.3\gskit subdirectory of the directory where you unzipped the Tivoli Directory Server .zip filed as you need to decompress these files to get access to the GSKit installers.
2. The following installation packages are available for 32–bit and 64–bit Windows operating systems.

   For 32–bit Windows systems

   • gsk8crypt32.exe: GSKit Crypt install package is required for low level encryption support.
   • gsk8ssl32.exe: GSKit SSL install package is required for SSL handshake operations. GSKit Crypt package is a prerequisite for GSKit SSL package.

   For 64–bit Windows systems

   • gsk8crypt64.exe: GSKit Crypt install package is required for low level encryption support.
   • gsk8ssl64.exe: GSKit SSL install package is required for SSL handshake operations. GSKit Crypt package is a prerequisite for GSKit SSL package.

3. Run one of the following commands.
   • To install using the GSKit8 GUI Install Wizard on 32-bit Windows systems:
     1. Go to the folder where the GSKit8 package is stored.
     2. Double-click the GSKit8 Crypt installation package. For example, gsk8crypt32.exe. On the GSKit8 Crypt InstallShield Wizard, do the following:
        1. Specify the path to install GSKit8 Crypt, for example C:\Program Files\IBM\gsk8. Click Next.
        2. Click Install.
        3. Click Finish.
     3. Double-click the GSKit8 SSL installation package. For example, gsk8ssl32.exe. On the GSKit8 SSL InstallShield Wizard, do the following:
        1. Specify the path to install GSKit8 SSL, for example C:\Program Files\IBM\gsk8. Click Next.
        2. Click Install.
        3. Click Finish.
   • To install GSKit8 in silent mode on a 32–bit Windows system, run the following command:

     gsk8crypt32.exe /s /v"/quiet"
     gsk8ssl32.exe /s /v"/quiet"

4. Set system variable for the Windows system. To run GSKit executables files from the command line, you need to set the PATH environment variable to point to the GSKit bin, and lib directories. For x86 Windows systems, you set the path using the following:

   set PATH="C:\Program Files\ibm\gsk8\bin";%PATH%
   set PATH="C:\Program Files\ibm\gsk8\lib";%PATH% 

   Note:
   For Windows x86_64, the library path should be lib64.

See Appendix Q. Setting up GSKit to support CMS key databases for more information about setting up GSKit after installation.
