Just type 'make' to compile and if you have all the necessary stuff it'll do so.
You do need the latest version of Gtk+ and Gtk-- (which may be tricky to build).
After that, hopefully all goes well, you start the thing by doing:
-./main
-
-It will default to base of o=University of Michigan, c=US", localhost, and
-LDAP_PORT (389). This is because OpenLDAP comes with the UMICH ldif and the
-assumption is that many of you have actually created a test db with that data
-(to see that people don't lie when they say OpenLDAP actually works or
-something). If you want to change any of these do ./main -h and it will give
-you a list of supported parameters.
-
-In short this is what you can do:
-
-./main -h ldap-server.somewhere.net -p 28345 -b "o=OpenLDAP Foundation, c=US"
-
-I really couldn't think of anything else to put here (at the moment
-that is). But please feel free to add whatever else you consider
-neccessary to understanding how this thing works. Enjoy, and I hope
-this can be useful to you in some miniscule way.
+./main -s localhost
+
+It no longer has a default base, instead it reads cn=config off your slapd
+and accordignly inserts all available databases under "localhost". If you are
+not running slapd on your local machine, then supply it with a "-s hostname"
+i.e.:
+ ./main -s server02.nowhere.net
+
+It does not accept -b switch as it no longer needs it to aquire databases.
+But please feel free to add whatever else you consider neccessary to
+understanding how this thing works. Enjoy, and I hope this can be useful to
+you in some miniscule way.
All emails to -devel list, and plase make sure you put "GTK-TOOL"
in the subject line, so other people who are not interested don't
