 # ApacheDS Installation guide
 
-We will explain how to install and setup **Fortress** with an **ApacheDS** instance. In this configuration, we will have the **ApacheDS** server running on a server (**ApacheDS Host**) and **Fortress** which will be installed on a client machine (**Fortress Host**). Note that those two hosts can be shared - and this is such a configuration that we are going to use in this document.
