**About**
Directory Assistant is a small application for managing a LDAP
address book. The focus is to create a very easy to use program,
with only the few but necessary features. The target is novice
users that still need to keep their addresses in an LDAP server.
If you want an advanced application targeted at power users,
check out http://biot.com/gq/.
**Download & install**
Unpack the tarball, cd directoryassistant-1.0/ and run ./install.py.
It will show you the few files that are copied. (note: if it complains
about not having the gtk module installed, and you are sure you have
it, make sure you run the ./install.py script under X)
Configuration is done by config file. Since novice users anyway
don't know how to configure LDAP access, I decided to remove that
from the GUI. The config file is however very simple. An example is
shown below:
[main]
ldapurl = ldap://your.ldap.server.com/
bind_dn = cn=someaccount,o=someorg
bind_password = yourpassword
base_dn = ou=department,ou=People,o=someorg
startup_search =
if you leave 'startup_search' empty, it will show all ldap entries
The config should be stored in $HOME/.directoryassistant
**Contact**
