That URL path is not the actual path in the file system.  The way the 
admin server works is that it maps that URL to a LDAP entry somewhere 
under o=NetscapeRoot in the configuration directory server.  It does 
this so it can apply fine grained access control to each task based on 
Fedora DS ACIs, rather than on httpd access control.

It's going to be tricky to install properly without an httpd.worker 
package available for setup.
