Installation

1. Requirements

   - Apache webserver (SSL optional) with installed PHP-Module (PHP-Module with
     ldap, gettext, xml, mcrypt+mhash optional)
   - Perl (optional, needed only for lamdaemon)
   - OpenLDAP (>2.0)
   - A web browser :-)

   MHash is only needed if you use PHP < 4.3 and if you want to use SHA or SSHA
   for password hashes.
   MCrypt will be used to store your LDAP password encrypted in the session file.

   Getting mcrypt and mhash for Suse/RedHat:

   Either you compile PHP4 yourself or you use some unofficial packages:

   - Suse: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/poeml/mod_php4
   - RedHat: http://ftp.horde.org/pub/RPMS


   See docs/README.schema.txt for information about used LDAP schema files.

2. Installation

   * Extract the package with:
     tar xzf ldap-account-manager-.tar.gz

   * Copy the files into the html-file scope of the webserver. For example
     /apache/htdocs.

   * Set appropriate file permissions:
     - lam/sess: write permission for apache user
     - lam/tmp: write permission for apache user
     - lam/config (with subdirectories): write permission for apache user
     - lam/lib: lamdaemon.pl must be set executable (See also
       docs/readme.lamdeamon.txt)

   * Configure config.cfg and create a configuration profile.
     Copy config.cfg_sample to config.cfg and set the master password and default
     profile.

     Open the index.html in your web browser:
     - Follow the link "Configuration Login" from the start page.
       (The default password to edit the options is "lam")
     - Select the default lam profile or create a new profile.
     - Change the settings to fit your environment.

3. Setting up PHP

   LAM runs with PHP4 or PHP5.

   Needed changes in your php.ini:

    * memory_limit = 32M
