  Lightweight Contact Manager - LiCoM
 -===================================-
 
+Requirements:
+
+- Webserver with CGI support (Apache, http://httpd.apache.org/, with
+  mod_auth_ldap works best)
+- LDAP server (OpenLDAP will do, http://www.openldap.org/)
+- Perl (Version 5.6 or later)
+
+
+Installation:
+
+Please read these instructions, they include non-obvious hints.
+
+- Install and configure the LDAP-Server. The root-node for each User must be of
+  the type (aka. objectClass) ``inetOrgPerson''. Also, make sure the ``uid''
+  Field is set. LDAP-entries without an uid-field are considered to be
+  contact-entries. For a sample layout see ``The big picture'' below.
+
+- Install and configure Apache. These is a sample config in the samples
+  directory which will guide you. It's very important that the REMOTE_USER
+  environment variable is set to the full DN by mod_auth_ldap. Look for
+  ``AuthLDAPRemoteUserIsDN'' in Apache's manual.
+  You will have to set a passwort to connect to the LDAP server, unless you
+  allow anonymous logins. Make sure the passwort is not world-readable.
+
+- Copy the ``licom.cgi'' script into the directory you just set up. Make sure
+  it's executable by the weberser-user.
+
+- Copy the directory ``lib/LiCoM'' to an appropriate directory.
+  ``perl -V:installsitelib'' may give you an idea what an appropriate directory
+  might be. You may not want to install the modules globally. In this case copy
+  the entire ``lib'' directory into the same directory as the CGI script. It
+  will look in a subdirectory ``lib'' for it's modules.
+
+- Create a config at ``/etc/licom/licom.conf''. Again, the samples directory is
+  you friend. Also: there's probably a password in this file. Make sure it's
+  not world-readable. The webserver will need read-permissions though.
+
+- To install the licom-mutt.pl script you will need to do something fancy, I
+  guess.. I'll explain it as soon as I know for sure..
+
+Okay, that's about it. You may stop reading now if you dislike reading
+documentation ;)
+
+
+Motivation:

 LiCoM is a contact manager I started writing because my family, my friends and
 myself were not very comfortable with the many existing address book scripts.
