    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:
