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:
