One nominally uses an 'L'- bracket (from you local shopping-center camera
store, or most anywhere else :-) to hold your flash.  Or maybe a "straight"
bracket.

To connect the camera, there is a bayonet connector a little up and to the
right of the lenses when looking from the front at the lenses.  This is a 
"standard" connector (a really nice connector that didn't catch on) for which
one can sometimes get a converter do-hicky that converts it to a now-standard
yucky "PC" connector -- or one can cut off a cable from an old bulb-type flash
that has that connector on the end, and do something creative with it.

If you search the list's archives you should find a lot of discussion about
this subject.

P.S. - I don't know of a *current* source of the converters, although thrift
       shops and some patience might find a flash cable.
