Title: Excellent book on OpenLDAP
Review: This book is probably the best book I have ever read on OpenLDAP implimentation. The title is somewhat misleading in that it does not go into LDAP in general, including deep history, heavy schema development, etc.However, it covers the down and dirty of implimenting OpenLDAP in detail. It covers:-detailed slapd.conf configuration-pam_ldap-nss specific and pam specific configuration parameters in ldap.conf-DNS implimentation with LDAP-conversion toolsThis book is an excellent guide on actually putting LDAP to work, including design, configuration and implimentation.This book is NOT designed for people looking to impliment other LDAP software (iPlanet, etc). This book does not cover in depth enterprise level roll-out, research, and user feedback.But if you want a great book that covers configuration and usage of OpenLDAP and Linux..this IS the book for you.
Is the review positive or negative?
