LDAP is a special type of database that is like a tree, full of nodes, branchs and properties with values. it USUALLY used to store user account information to be shared among different servers, or to store email account definitions. if you are NOT using openldap, then it's probably safe to put -ldap in your global USE flag in /etc/make.conf But I don't know your system, so.... analyze it. check out www.openldap.org and read about it. - -- Arturo "Buanzo" Busleiman - VPN Mail Project - http://vpnmail.buanzo.com.ar Consultor en Seguridad Informatica - http://www.buanzo.com.ar http://www.vivamoslavida.com.ar - Portal no-comercial del buen vivir! for f in www blog linux-consulting vpnmail; do firefox http://$f.buanzo.com.ar ; done -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFFVMCAlpOsGhXcE0RAnt9AJ4trQxGKu3h3sJVs+ro3Y+GUit3WwCdGKlh RMCOj1zAX1B3dpAMSvtZGDA= =C6t8 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
