# INSTALL

    Installation Instructions for LAM
    ---------------------------------

    1. Requirements

       - Apache webserver (SSL optional) with PHP module (PHP 5 (>= 5.1) with
         ldap, gettext, xml and optional mcrypt)
       - some LAM plugins may require additional PHP extensions (you will get a
         note on the login page if something is missing)
       - Perl (optional, needed only for lamdaemon)
       - OpenLDAP (>2.0)
       - A web browser :-)

       MHash is only needed for Samba password hashes.
       MCrypt will be used to store your LDAP password encrypted in the session file.

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

    2. Installation

       1. Extract package with:
          tar xzf ldap-account-manager-<version>.tar.gz

       2. Install the files

       2a. 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)

       2b. You can also use the included configure script to install LAM. See
           "./configure --help" for a list of install options.

       3. 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 PHP5 (>= 5.1).

       Needed changes in your php.ini:

        * memory_limit = 64M
