Subject: Re: ruby-ldap on Windows

OK, I guess someone is gonna have to spell it out for me, because I'm
having no luck at all. So, I got cygwin installed. Then I tried to
install OpenLDAP, but had no luck (something about no suitable cc or
gcc found - do I need to install a compiler separate?). So then I
installed the OpenLDAP for Windows binary which didn't seem to help
any, because ruby-ldap still cannot find ldap.h or lber.h, even if I
specify the directory to look in. So I then tried to download and tried
the 0.8 cygwin version of ruby-ldap, which complained about the same
stuff.

I'm no doubt missing something obvious, but why the heck does this have
to be so hard on Windows? Never mind. Don't answer that.
