System requirements:

adtool requires LDAP libraries to be installed (www.openldap.org). To use secure (ldaps://) connections OpenLDAP has to have been built with SSL support. SSL support is required for the password setting feature to work.

Copy the build-openldap.sh to the uncompressed openldap dir, run the script first

Installation:

Run build-adtool.sh after openldap libraries built successfully.

Configuration:

An example configuration file is installed to {prefix}/etc/adtool.cfg.dist. Rename this to adtool.cfg and edit as appropriate. Alternatively, command line options can be used.

Usage:

See the adtool man page

Todo:

1. Add aarch64 support
2. Add static compiling(muslib) support
3. "make install-strip" is not working when cross compiling, STRIPPROG is not working
4. See the TODO file

FAQ:

1. I encounter "am__api_version" hard coded in aclocal.m4, error: "can't find aclocal-1.7" Fix:

   autoreconf --force --install
