UM-LDAP 3.3 README file This is the UM-LDAP version 3.3 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 and install the distribution, see the INSTALL file in this directory. For more information on making and installing slapd, see the "SLAPD and SLURPD Administrator's Guide" in the doc/guides/ directory. 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 % make % 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 two files you might want to edit: Make-common This file contains definitions for where things will be installed, where to find various things, etc. If you want to build an ldap server, you'll definitely need to edit this file 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 a postscript version of an administrator's guide for slapd in doc/guides/slapd.ps. There is an LDAP 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.umich.edu/~rsug/ldap/ FEEDBACK / PROBLEM REPORTS We would appreciate any feedback you can provide.
