The biggest problem is that this library does not handle the
communication part. However, you can also have a look at a dormant
project we have once worked on :
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/directory/sandbox/old/proxy/
which is a Ldap Proxy. It was designed once upon a time to offer a
graphical UI allowing you to see all the incoming and outgoing LDAP
requests. It's not perfect, but it worked, 2 years ago.
Do you need to do anything with the ldap request or do you just need a
proxy to traverse a DMZ? If you need a simple proxy (and assuming
ApacheDS doesn't offer one) you can use either MyVirtualDirectory
(http://myvd.sourceforge.net/) Penrose or I think Fedora DS and OpenDS
all have proxy modules.
OpenLDAP has a couple different proxy modules to choose from as well.
back-ldap if simple pass-thru is all you need; back-meta if you need more
elaborate rewrites. SSL/TLS passthru is no problem either.
