I would also recommend a DB, for most LDAP implementations get real slow
when handling large amounts of entries... however
LDAP *IS* the clean way to go, and good implementations of it could serve
the purpose better than either an ODBMS or RDBMS; I would
also like to refer y'all to the JAAS spec; it really paints a whole new
picture regarding integration into app servers.

I would recommend against moving from a database table to an LDAP directory.
LDAP does not provide any form of transactions which has bitten us several
times already (races and partial completes abound).
