Installation Instructions for LAM --------------------------------- 1. Requirements - Apache webserver (SSL optional) with installed PHP-Module (PHP-Module with ldap, gettext, 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 want to use SHA or SSHA for password hashes. MCrypt will be used if available, otherwise Blowfish will be used to store your LDAP password 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 OpenLDAP + Suse: Do not use the rfc2307bis.schema but nis.schema instead. 2. Installation * Extract package with: tar xzf ldap-account-manager_.tar.gz * Copy 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. - With web browser: Follow the link "Configuration Login" from the start page (lam/index.html). (The default password to edit the options is "lam") - Manually: A default config file can be found in /lam/config/lam.conf_sample. Change the necessary entries and rename it to /lam/config/lam.conf.
