Anyhow, I found that reading "LDAP System > Administration" by Gerald Carter from O'Reilly was a good help in > understanding LDAP, deploying OpenLDAP and configuring applications to > fetch data from the LDAP directory (i.e. sendmail, replace NIS, PAM, > FTP, Apache, DNS, etc). Get more info at > http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/ldapsa/index.html I really recommend this book. Its initial chapters helped me get openldap up and running just for a couple of hours. Since I am also interested in programming and scripting with ldap I also found helpful "Deploying OpenLDAP" by Tom Jackiewicz http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1590594134/105-1483603-1926857. It contains a chapter discussing the LDAP APIs for a couple of languages. Regards Rambius -- Tangra Mega Rock: http://www.radiotangra.com
