We could add LDAP to the Security exam. A number of applications are listed:
http://wiki.lpi.org/wiki/LPIC-3_303_Objectives#Topic_322:_Application_Security
LDAP would have been omitted from the list because of the 301 exam.
Considering that we are approaching the 2.5 year mark for the
303/Security exam, we could add OpenLDAP directly to the 303 exam. By
that, I only mean the security aspects of OpenLDAP.
