I did some research with ldap - the point for me is the use in network for different operating systmes and netscapes roaming profiles. I was able to set up this, but some things (Addressbook, ...) don't work (yet) with Version 2.0.x - there is very little documentation. Thers is a Samba-Version with PDC-Support with LDAP - works very good, but you have to enable cleartext-passwords on NT. Somebody told me, it does not work with w2k. The use of LDAP with qmail was not very hard to setup. If you plan to use LDAP in a network, you can expect a lot of research, a bit frustration and fun with solving problems. Generally I think, is a good idea. martin [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Frank Copeland) on 09.01.2001 14:18:00 An: debian-user@lists.debian.org Kopie: (Blindkopie: Martin Tanzer/dvs/DE) Blindkopie: Martin Tanzer/dvs/DE Thema: Re: ldap, ldap everywhere

Having just done exactly that I can say it's probably more frustrating than difficult. I had an interesting time finding any sort of documentation specifically on setting up LDAP authentication. LDAP does much more than this, and what documentation there is tends to be more general than I was looking for. Eventually I turned up a few helpful web pages including: <http://staff.pisoftware.com/bmarshal/publications/ldap.html> <http://people.redhat.com/alikins/ldap/ldap.html> <http://www.redhat.com/support/manuals/RHL-7-Manual/ref-guide/ch-ldap.html> >How integrated are various utilities into ldap?

One possibility is addluser: <http://www.open-it.org/download/prototypes/addluser.py> Frank -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
