Singlestep Technologies Releases Free LDAPBrowser for Mac OS 10.2 and Windows 2000/XP The LDAPBrowser converts the ldapsearch utility into an extendable, visual VNOS application. Seattle, Washington Nov 12, 2002 � Singlestep Technologies today announced the release of the LDAPBrowser built with VNOS, the Visual Network Operating System. LDAP, or Light Directory Access Protocol, is a software protocol for enabling anyone to locate organizations, individuals, and other resources such as files and devices in a network. The LDAPBrowser runs the ldapsearch command and parses the results into a view-only Browse Tree. It is a simple application that connects VNOS objects in a powerful user interface to handle the input and output options of command line functions. This provides easier access to information in directories and enables automation. "The LDAPBrowser converts the commonly used ldapsearch utility into a visual, extendable VNOS application. Administrators can use it as a stand-alone tool for visualizing directory tree information or quickly extend its functions to manage directory data between other services,� says Ophir Ronen, chief technology officer of Singlestep Technologies. The LDAPBrowser is released with browse-only functionality. However, because the LDAPBrowser is built with VNOS, creating policies and extending the application is as simple as Cloning and Aliasing VNOS objects. Users can extended, modify, add and delete functionality, apply policies and manage events to customize the application to meet their specific needs. �The LDAPBrowser�s visual code is commented,� says Christian Eyerman, co-founder of Singlestep Technologies. �We built this application in an exposed and annotated way so users who are new to VNOS can more quickly learn the principles of VNOS.� VNOS is an integration and object-oriented programming platform with more than 35 widgets and tools for building, extending and modifying applications. The LDAPBrowser uses 14 widgets including Command Tool, PopUp Menu, Regex and Value Filters to run the ldapsearch commands, filter and parse results, and manage the security protocols. Users can Alias, Clone and Connect other widgets and tools to customize the application. The LDAPBrowser is being distributed as a free application and is available at http://http://www.vnos.net/promotions/promo.html&g=0&f=-1 upon completion of a short LDAP survey. A 30-Day free trial of VNOS is also available for download. The LDAP Browser runs on Mac OS 10.2 (Jaguar) and Windows 2000/XP. VNOS 1.1 is required to run the LDAPBrowser on either platform.
