+P1: Making and Installing the OpenLDAP Distribution
+
+This file provides brief instructions on how to build and install
+OpenLDAP on UNIX (and UNIX-{{like}}) systems.  More detailed
+information and instructions can be found in
+{{The OpenLDAP Administrator's Guide}}
+(available from {{URL:http://www.openldap.org/doc/}}).
+
+It is recommended that you read, or at least skim through, ALL of
+the instructions in this file before attempting to build the
+software.
+
+It is also recommended you review
+the {{Frequently Asked Questions}} ({{URL:http://www.openldap.org/faq/}})
+pages, in particular the
+{{Installation section}} ({{URL:http://www.openldap.org/faq/index.cgi?file=8}})
+and
+{{Platform Hints}} ({{URL:http://www.openldap.org/faq/index.cgi?file=9}})
+should be examined.
+
+
+P2: Making and Installing the OpenLDAP Distribution
+
+^ Unpack the distribution and change directory:
+
+E:	% tar xfz openldap-VERSION.tgz
+E:	% cd openldap-VERSION
+
+.(replacing {{EX:VERSION}} with the appropriate version string).  If
+you are reading this file, you probably have already done this!
+
+
++ Type:
+
+E:	% ./configure --help
+
+.to list available configuration options.
+
+.The {{EX:configure}} script also looks for compiler/linker options
+on the command line and in the environment.  These include:
+
+>	Variable	Description	Example
+>	CC		C compiler	gcc
+>	CFLAGS		C flags		-O -g
+>	CPPFLAGS	cpp flags	-I/path/include -D__FOO__=42
+>	LDFLAGS		ld flags	-L/usr/local/lib
+>	LIBS		libraries	-llib
+>	PATH		command path	/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin
+
+!if $var{'OPT_TARGET'} eq 'txt'
+.See doc/install/configure for generic configure documentation.
+!endif
+
++ Configure the build system:
+
+E:	% ./configure [options] [var=value ...]
+
+.If all goes well, the {{EX:configure}} script will automatically detect
+the appropriate settings.  If the {{EX:configure}} script fails, you should
+read the {{FILE:config.log}} file that it generated to see what it was trying
+to do and exactly what failed.  You may need to specify additional
+options and/or variables besides those listed above to
+obtain desired results, depending on your operating system. The
+{{Platform Hints}} section of the {{FAQ}} provides help for operating system
+related problems.
+
++ Build dependencies:
+
+E:	% make depend
+
++ Build the system:
+
+E:	% make
+
+.If all goes well, the system will build as configured.  If not,
+return to step 3 after reviewing the configuration settings.  You
+may want to consult the {{Platform Hints}} subsection of the {{FAQ}}
+if you have not done so already.
+
++ Test the standalone system:
+
+.This step requires the standalone LDAP server, {{slapd}}(8),
+with {{HDB}} and/or {{BDB}} support.
+
+E:	% make test
+
+.If all goes well, the system has been built as configured.  If not,
+return to step 2 after reviewing your configuration settings.  You
+may want to consult the {{Installation}} section of the {{FAQ}}
+if you have not done so already.
+
++ Install the software.  You may need to become the
+{{super-user}} (e.g. {{EX:root}}) to do this (depending on where you
+are installing things):
+
+E:	% su root -c 'make install'
+
++ That's it.  Enjoy!
+
+See the {{OpenLDAP Administrator's Guide}} and the manual pages
+for the individual applications for configuration and use information.
+You may also want to edit the configuration files used by the
+various components.  These configuration files are located in
+the OpenLDAP configuration directory (normally
+{{FILE:/usr/local/etc/openldap}}).
