LDAP Explorer has been tested against Apache Web Server, Open LDAP 
Server, Netscape Directory Server as well as Novell eDirectory for
Linux (Trail version 8.1) so far. Also Microsoft Active Directory 
server, Papp Zoltán <padre@inf.elte.hu> said it works.

|  Dependency  |
 --------------	

    LDAP Explorer version >= 1.15 needs Apache or Netscape web server 
    with PHP version 4.xx with ldap support 

    Important!!!
  
    Because very bizarre behavior in PHP 4.0.4pl1, LDAP Explorer doesn't work 
    well with it at the moment. Please stay at version 4.0.3pl1. Binary 
    code for Redhat Linux can be found at: 

        <ftp://igloo.its.unimelb.edu.au/pub/Linux/PHP4/>

  -------------
| Installation |
  -------------

    1. Change directory to web server root directory and unpack 
       tar file:

       	[root@igloo /root]# cd /var/www/html
       	[root@igloo html]# tar xvfz LDAPExplorer-x.xx.tar.gz

    2. Create a tmp directory under web server root directory (to keep
       temporary tree structure and mime type files), e.g.:

       	[root@igloo /root]# mkdir /home/httpd/html/tmp

       if your apache is running as user nobody:

       	[root@igloo /root]# chown nobody:nobody /home/httpd/html/tmp

       or as user apache:

       	[root@igloo /root]# chown apache:apache /home/httpd/html/tmp

    3. Change default setting in default.php, e.g.: set $default->root_html
       to "/var/www/html" (it points to server root - in Apache see ServerRoot
       setting) and $default->tmpdir to "/" or "/tmp" depend on your system

    4. turn magic quotes off in PHP. in php.ini:

        magic_quotes_gpc = Off  

       or in apache configuration file, e.g, access.conf:

        <Location /LDAPExplorer>
        DirectoryIndex login.php

        AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
        AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps

        php_value magic_quotes_gpc off
        </Location>

    5. That's all. Open your browser (Browser should support frame and 
       javascript), go to URL:

       http://www.mydomain.com/LDAPExplorer/login.php

       Enjoy LDAP Explorer!
