               *********************
Please, provide feedback on led.  Suggestions, bugs reports,
requests for enhancement, patches, anything just so that I can
see how many people are using led.  There is a mailing list
led-users@lists.sourceforge.net and forums set up on the
SourceForge site http://sourceforge.net/projects/led/.  
               *********************

Led requires Perl 5.6.1 and several perl modules in order to
operate, they are as follows.

Net::LDAP	perl-ldap-0.2401
Authen::SASL	perl-cyrus-sasl-0.02
Digest::MD5	Digest-MD5-2.16
URI		URI-1.17

Led works with newer versions of Net::LDAP but does not
work with the corresponding versions of Authen::SASL::Cyrus.
It seems that I am not the only one having this problem,
please contact me if you have can help with the
Authen::SASL::Cyrus issues.

The older versions of Net::LDAP and Authen::SASL::Cyrus
are included in the modules directory if you need a
working GSSAPI solution.

Before installing Led you should have a working knowlege of
LDAP and perl.  The supplied maps are relativly generic and
should be reviewed before use to insure that they meet your
needs.

It is highly advised that after you install Led that you test
every map you intend on using by making some changes with the
'-n' option invoked and verifying all changes Led is going to
make to your database.

Led has been tested with both OpenLDAP and Sun ONE Directory
Server 5.1.
