Hi all,

Hi Nick !


Are there plans to add a "user" mailing list ? I have a few questions that are not development related and was wondering if there was a better place to post such questions.

Yes, there is a plan to create such a list, but right now, we don't have that many users, due to the fact that we didn't release a 1.0 yet :) So feel very confortable to post any question to the dev list. The response will be 42 ;)


As this seems to be the only place at the moment, here goes.....

Is Apache DS 1.0 ready for productions use ? I am looking to replace openLDAP and to use Apache DS with the Liferay portal server, which will have Apache DS support shortly according to their web site.

Well, this is a great - and challenging - news for ADS ! So 1.0 will be production ready, definitively. Of course, we might have some bugs, but the is what we are currently working on with 1.0-RC4 : trying to make it the last Release Candidate before the production ready server. (I didn't even knew that liferay will support ADS, I have to look at their web site :) Remember that this is Open Source, and our workforce are volonteers, so we do what we can to deliver the best product we can, but our time is shared with day jobs, life, and a little bit of other activity (like sleeping, having a shower from time to time ...). There is no guarentee that you won't ever have a problem with the server (but, after all, if you look at professionnal and expensive products, you have small prints that say exactly the same thing : you use the product are your own risk blah blah blah, - excpet that it cost you money- :)


Is there a document that outlines Apache DS security configuration for such things as TLS/SSL support, Kerberos ?

I don't think we support TLS atm, but we will. For SSL, here is the page : http://docs.safehaus.org/display/APACHEDS/SSL+Enabling For Kerberos, Work In Progress I think (but I'm not the Kerberos most aware person )


Thanks and sorry for posting this to the Developer list!!

Don't be ! This is the place to post.
