You will need to write the portion of the server that sends, receives, and processes the actual LDAP messages (the LDAP service/daemon). However, nothing is stopping you from using MySQL on the backend, behind your daemon, as the data storage medium. MySQL does not understand the LDAP protocols, it has it's own interface that it uses to communicate with its clients. It's your application that translates LDAP to SQL and back. Make sense?
