Thank you for the hint, Nick. I mavened this goal and although I had some problems with the Windows "shellscript" (horrible technology), it worked.

Is it planned to offer this version to end users (pre-build)? I'm thinking of people who just want to get a first glimpse and do not want to have any trouble. Compare it to Tomcat: Just a ZIP/tgz, unpack/zip it, go to bin, and start it up. I think it is very near to this.

Related to this is a question to the site: Currently, the download link points to http://cvs.apache.org/dist/directory/, which was last updated in May. Newcomers will think the current version of ApacheDS is 0.9. I would like if it's pointing to some URL, which reflects the current development (e.g. http://cvs.apache.org/repository/directory/jars/), or (probably better) copy at least the releases to the position linked from the website.

Thanks for thinking about end users first contact with Apache DS.
Greetings, Stefan (still in first contact, I confess)

Hi Stefan,

There is a standalone configuration which doesnt require that a
server.xml be passed in on the command line - it defaults to using the
standard one if no argument is present. It can be built using the
standalone maven goal in the main module.

Cheers,
Nick
