 3 Building and Installing
 *************************
 
 Heimdal uses GNU Autoconf to configure for specific hosts, and GNU
 Automake to manage makefiles. If this is new to you, the short
 instruction is to run the `configure' script in the top level
 directory, and when that finishes `make'.
 
 If you want to build the distribution in a different directory from the
 source directory, you will need a make that implements VPATH correctly,
 such as GNU make.
 
 You will need to build the distribution:
 
    * A compiler that supports a "loose" ANSI C mode, such as `gcc'.
 
    * lex or flex
 
    * awk
 
    * yacc or bison
 
    * a socket library
 
    * NDBM or Berkeley DB for building the server side.
 
 When everything is built, you can install by doing `make install'. The
 default location for installation is `/usr/heimdal', but this can be
 changed by running `configure' with `--prefix=/some/other/place'.
 
 If you need to change the default behaviour, configure understands the
 following options:
 
 `--without-berkeley-db'
      DB is preferred before NDBM, but if you for some reason want to
      use NDBM instead, you can use this option.
 
 `--with-krb4=`dir''
      Gives the location of Kerberos 4 libraries and headers. This
      enables Kerberos 4 support in the applications (telnet, rsh,
      popper, etc) and the KDC. It is automatically found if present
      under `/usr/athena'.  If you keep libraries and headers in
      different places, you can instead give the path to each with the
      `--with-krb4-lib=`dir'', and `--with-krb4-include=`dir'' options.
 
      You will need a fairly recent version of our Kerberos 4
      distribution for `rshd' and `popper' to support version 4 clients.
 
 `--enable-dce'
      Enables support for getting DCE credentials and tokens.  See the
      README files in `appl/dceutils' for more information.
 
 `--disable-otp'
      By default some of the application programs will build with
      support for one-time passwords (OTP).  Use this option to disable
      that support.
 
 `--enable-osfc2'
      Enable some C2 support for OSF/Digital Unix/Tru64.  Use this
      option if you are running your OSF operating system in C2 mode.
 
 `--with-readline=`dir''
      Gives the path for the GNU Readline library, which will be used in
      some programs. If no readline library is found, the (simpler)
      editline library will be used instead.
 
 `--with-hesiod=`dir''
      Enables hesiod support in push.
 
 `--enable-netinfo'
      Add support for using netinfo to lookup configuration information.
      Probably only useful (and working) on NextStep/Mac OS X.
 
 `--without-ipv6'
      Disable the IPv6 support.
 
 `--with-openldap'
      Compile Heimdal with support for storing the database in LDAP.
      Requires OpenLDAP `http://www.openldap.org'.  See
      `http://www.padl.com/Research/Heimdal.html' for more information.
 
 `--enable-bigendian'
 
 `--enable-littleendian'
      Normally, the build process will figure out by itself if the
      machine is big or little endian.  It might fail in some cases when
      cross-compiling.  If it does fail to figure it out, use the
      relevant of these two options.
 
 `--with-mips-abi=ABI'
      On Irix there are three different ABIs that can be used (`32',
      `n32', or `64').  This option allows you to override the automatic
      selection.
 
 `--disable-mmap'
      Do not use the mmap system call.  Normally, configure detects if
      there is a working mmap and it is only used if there is one.  Only
      try this option if it fails to work anyhow.
