OpenLDAP 1.0 README This is the OpenLDAP version 1.0 distribution. For a description of what this distribution contains, see the ANNOUNCEMENT file in this directory. For a description of changes from previous releases, see the CHANGES file in this directory. For a more detailed description of how to make an install the distribution, see the INSTALL file in this directory. For more information: http://www.OpenLDAP.org/ MAKING AND INSTALLING THE DISTRIBUTION You should be able to make and install the distribution with a pretty standard default configuration by typing the following commands % ./configure --help This will list the available options. The configure script will also use your environmental variables for determining compiler/linker options. These environment variables are used: CC C compiler (cc, ecgs) CFLAGS C Flags (-ansi) CPPFLAGS CPP Flags (-I -D) LDFLAGS LDFLAGS (-L -l) % [env settings] ./configure [options] this will configure the build system % make depend this will create dependency information % make this will build the system % su # make install in this directory. This should produce something that basically works. You will probably want to do a little configuration to suit your site, though. There are one file you might want to edit: include/ldapconfig.h.edit This file contains #defines used by many parts of the distribution. You'll at least want to change DEFAULT_BASE. See the INSTALL file in this directory for more information. DOCUMENTATION There are man pages for most programs in the distribution and routines in the various libraries. See ldap(3) for details. There is an OpenLDAP homepage available that contains the latest LDAP news, releases announcements, pointers to other LDAP resources, etc. You can access it at this URL: http://www.OpenLDAP.org/ FEEDBACK / PROBLEM REPORTS / DISCUSSIONS We would appreciate any feedback you can provide.
