LDAP-APIs

[Stefan Kiesow <Stefan.Kiesow@nwn.de>]

Hello,

I installed the OpenLDAP-Server and everything seems to work fine.
I addes entries via an LDIF-File and I read out the entries by using the
ldapsearch.

But here now my problem:

I have to write some CGI-Scripts for HTML-based front-ends.
I wondered which api would be the best and I decided to use the JAVA-api
and / or the Perl-api.

I tried to install both of them, but without success.

What do I have to do to install the PERL-LDAP, the C-LDAP and the
JAVA-LDAP api's?

I tried so many differnt things, but nothing seems to work.

- Where do I have to get which ressources for the differnt api's?
- What steps do I have to take to install the api's?
- Has anybody expereinces in using one or more of these mentioned api's?

Last question: I need an LDAP-Browser which is free (because I need it
for my Diplom-Work at the University).
Does anybody know a simple, good and easy-to-install browser fpr
LDAP-Directories?
