For details on the dependencies of each supported platform, see the Readme.
In addition to the LDAP Libraries for C, you will need the following to take full advantage of the functionality offered in the libraries:
- LDAP Server. The libraries can be used to access any LDAP server and its directory. For eDirectory, the LDAP server must be running on eDirectory 7.xx or higher to access LDAP v3 functionality. Other servers in the tree can be running other versions of eDirectory; only the LDAP server needs to be on eDirectory 7.xx or higher.
- SSL. To use SSL, the LDAP server and the LDAP client must be configured for SSL. For more information, see the documentation.
- LDAP Extensions for eDirectory. To use the LDAP extensions for naming contexts (partition and replica management) and getting effective rights, the LDAP server must be running on eDirectory 8.5.
