1 This directory contains a set of files that build a simple LDAP client
2 program. The program is command-line oriented and uses a syntax and
3 command set roughly similar to ISODE's DISH program, hence it is
4 named "saucer" (i.e. a very small "dish" :-)
6 To build saucer, make sure the top-level LDAP 'make' has created all
7 of the makefiles from their templates (you can force this by typing
8 "make makefiles" in the LDAP root directory). Then cd into
9 contrib/saucer and type make. With luck, saucer will compile and
10 link without any warnings or errors. You can then install it by
11 doing an "su" and typing "make install". This will copy the binary
12 to the directory you specified for LDAP binaries, and the man page
13 will be placed in the appropriate man directory.
15 Saucer runs from the Unix command line with the following arguments:
17 saucer [-h host] [-p portnumber] [-u X500UserName]
18 [-c credentials] [-d debug-level]
20 If no options are given, saucer will attempt to connect to an LDAP
21 daemon on the local host and default port (389), and will attempt to
24 Typing "help" at saucer's command prompt will yield:
27 Supported commands are:
36 You can get syntactical help for a command by typing "help <command>".
37 Detailed instructions are available from the saucer man page.
