kldap - Version 0.4
===================

This is the second release of kldap. A LDAP client for the KDE. Note: There is no help file at the moment.

Installation
------------
You need a LDAP library. Download for exemple OpenLDAP (www.openldap.org).
Without an LDAP library you can't compile kldap.

So, to compile kldap type (in the kldap-0.4 directory)

./configure
make
make install (for this you have to be root)

Thanks to Patrick Koppen for his configure script!
See INSTALL file.


Features
--------
- Browsing LDAP trees
- Modifying attributes
- Creating new objects
- Adding new attributes
- removing attributes/objects
- Different bind methods (SIMPLE, KERBEROS 4.1/4.2)
- Search entries

ToDo
----
See TODO file.

Bugs
----
I've tested kldap with different Servers:

- OpenLDAP
- Novell (1.03 with NW 4.11, www.nldap.com (I think Novell 5?))

And it worked mostly. You can have some problems with large trees. But that is depending on your ldap-library. For example if you connect to ldap://ldap.switch.ch/c=US you can't browse the directory because an error occurs: "sizelimit exeeded".
