>The main purpose of this document is to set up and use a LDAP Directory Server
|
|
on your Linux machine.You will learn how to install, configure, run and
|
|
maintain the LDAP server. After you also learn how you can store, retrieve and
|
|
update information on your Directory using the LDAP clients and utilities.
|
|
The daemon for the LDAP directory server is called <EM
|
|
>slapd</EM
|
|
> and it runs on
|
|
many different UNIX platforms. </P
|
|
><P
|
|
>There is another daemon that cares for replication between LDAP servers. It's
|
|
called slurpd and for the moment you don't need to worry about it. In this
|
|
document you will run a slapd which provides directory service for your local
|
|
domain only, without replication, so without slurpd. Complete information about
|
|
replication is available at: <A
|
|
HREF="http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin23/replication.html"

|
|

></P
|
|
><P
|
|
>The local domain setup represents a simple choice for configuring your server,
|
|
good for starting and easy to upgrade to another configuration later if you want.
|
|
The information presented on this document represents a nice initialization on
|
|
using the LDAP server. Possibly after reading this document you will feel
|
|
encouraged to expand the capabilities of your server and even write your own
|
|
clients, using the already available C, C++ and Java Development Kits.</P
