directory. For a more detailed description of how to make an
install the distribution, see the INSTALL file in this 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
% cp Make-common.dist to Make-common
Note: if using gmake, instead copy Make-common.gmake to Make-common
Edit Make-common as desired.
% 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 two files you might want to edit:
Make-common.dist
contains distribution defaults. This file is used to
contruct Make-common and should not be edited except to
add new features/options to the distribution.
Make-common.gmake
contains distribution defaults (with GNU make compatibility).
This file can be used to contruct Make-common and should not
be edited except to add new features/options to the distribution.
Make-common
contains default definitions for where things will be
installed, where to find various things, etc. These defaults
are used in absense of platform-specific defaults. You may
hardcode settings in Make-common if you desire. You will
need to edit this file to enable optional features.
build/*/Make-platform
contains platform-specific defaults.
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:
