 1. Internet access to retrieve source code from OpenLDAP GIT and binary dependencies from online Maven repo.
 
-NOTE: The Fortress build.xml may run without connection to Internet iff:
-- The Fortress source modules have been downloaded
-- The binary dependencies are already present in FORTRESS_HOME/lib folder
-- Local mode has been enabled on target machine.  Local mode can be enabled by adding this property to build.properties:
+Fortress uses Apache Ant for installation and management of its operations.  Ordinarily the target environment
+would have access to the Internet to pull down its dependencies from Maven but may run without outside connection iff:
+
+a. The binary dependencies are already present in FORTRESS_HOME/lib folder.  For list of dependencies goto ivy.xml file.
+b. Local mode has been enabled on target machine.  This can be done by adding the following entry to your build.properties file:
+
 local.mode=true
 
 2. Java SDK Version 7 or beyond installed to target environment
 3. Apache Ant 1.8 or beyond installed to target environment
-4. OpenLDAP installed to target system.  (options follow in section 1)
+4. OpenLDAP installed to target system.  (options follow in section 1).
