It is definitely possible using ApacheDS, but you have implement your
extension using ApacheDS interceptor. What you mentioned  is a well
known concept called virtual directory. If you have the resources to
implement this, I would recommend that you do implement it. That would
be a great addition to ApacheDS.  If you don't want to write the code
yourself, you can try to google it to see if there is an open source
virtual directory  implementation out there.

Jim, I would appreciate a lot, as the Chairman of this project, that you don't use this mailing list to promote your own product. You can perfectly reply privatly to Eric and told him about it, but please keep this ML Apache Directory Server focused. Your last sentence is totally out of scope.

Apache is *not* a commercial entity.

Thanks.

I'm interested in how easy/difficult this was. We're looking at a project which would present an LDAP interface to an SQL database backend. Without getting into too much detail, the idea is that we want to present an LDAP interface to an SQL database backend that contains identity information. The
LDAP interface will allow authorized admins to update information on
identities they are responsible for with familiar tools, while the SQL
backend is desirable for updating from our authoritative source.
I've been looking at writing a backend for OpenLDAP, but upon seeing
your message, ApacheDS might be a better alternative.

Thanks,
ERic
