[Boston.pm] LDAP server recommendations?

2006-11-13 Thread R. Mariotti
Gentlemen;

As some of you were kind enough to answer my ldap research questions I 
have been searching for a good all-around ldap server to support my project.

Of course the standard is most likely OpenLDAP but there is nothing like 
first-hand recommendations from similar developers as to what to use.  I 
am also aware of mozilla's LDAP server project but I would like to stay 
away from java if at all possible.

So, recommendations, suggestions, advice GREATLY appreciated.

Thanks,

bobmct

We have OpenLDAP @ $work. We use it for SAMBA and PAM and I am really happy
with it.

OpenLDAP is nice.  I used it at a previous job.  The problems I found
lay with LDAP itself rather than this particular implementation.

Be careful with the BDB backend, it can have serious problems.  On our
Solaris server we had file limits (size and number of files) that
caused headaches.  I don't know if that can happen on Linux, I left
before that migration :)

I've set up OpenLDAP servers, mostly for samba authentication and it works 
great!

The last installation was 2 or 3 months ago in a 24/7 environment with 
replicated servers,
and it's still humming along. A bit of a pain to setup, mostly because of the
Samba requirements, but works great once you get it. Banged my head against a
wall or two trying to figure out why I could not authenticate until I rebuilt
and reinstalled the rpms (on a FC4 system) server from latest sources at which
point, it worked beautifully.
