+LDAP-module README
+07.10.2002 Version 0.1, Petri Asikainen <paca@sci.fi>
+
+Ldap-authetication module is work in progress. 
+Right now we are building config-interface to use also with all other auth-modules, 
+but it will take sometime.
+
+If you like to try ldap-authentication now , create following $CFG->variables to
+/moodle/config.php or directly to config-table and activate ldap authentication 
+from admin-configuration page.
+
+Variable                       Description
+$CFG->ldap_bind_dn             "If your like to use bind-user to search
+                               users, specify it here. Something like 
+                               'cn=ldapuser,ou=public,o=org'"
+$CFG->ldap_bind_pw             "Password for bind-user."
+$CFG->ldap_contexts                    "List of contexts where users are located.
+                                Separate different contexts with ';'.
+                               Something like 
+                               'ou=users,o=org; ou=other,o=org'"
+$CFG->ldap_host_url            "Specify LDAP host in URL-form, like
+                               'ldap://ldap.myorg.com/' or 
+                               'ldaps//ldap.myorg.com/' "
+$CFG->ldap_search_sub          "Put value <> 0 if  you like to 
+                               search users from subcontexts. 
+                               (Subsearching is sometimes slow)"
+$CFG->ldap_user_attribute      "What attribute is used to name/search
+                               users. Usually 'cn' when using 
+                               Novell e-directory
+
+And if you like to _very_ experimental:
+Edit /auth/ldap/lib.php function auth_get_userinfo() attribute-mappings and
+set $CFG->auth_update_userinfo = 1
+Then moodle will get user first-, lastname and other information from ldap
+when user is login first time.
