Why all the angst  ???.
How is this any different to LDAP requirements for RACF ???.


Our LDAP server does not require RACF, unless you want to use it to perform RACF administration. We simply don't provide a function allowing you to administer the other security products via our LDAP server, but that is not the same as requiring RACF.

On the other hand, if you want to use it as a traditional LDAP database, serving data of your choosing to your clients, then you can use LDAP native authentication functions or you can use any SAF-compliant security product, not just RACF, to provide user ID and password checking.
