Yes thank you David.

I've been using Netscape's LDAP JDK for educational purposes but
lately have begun playing with JNDI. I was surprised to hear your
mentioning JNDI doesn't provide the robustness you require as I had
hoped to begin doing all of my LDAP work via JNDI because it seems so
convenient.

Yes. This is important to me as well *but* it does raise some issues
in regards to how the security works since LDAP servers have their own
security mechanism. Perhaps security could be configurable in this
regards.

Yes.

Yes.

I was of the impression this could be done on the LDAP's end using
replication. From the app's perspective, it's just one LDAP server
although there might be a load-balancing component between the
application server and LDAP.

I'm mostly just interested in LDAP. From what I understand, NDS has an
LDAP front end as does AD.

This is the first I've heard of DSML and I just looked it up.

A SOAP service would be nice but isn't that a job for the app server
and not the adapter?

The folks over at <http://www.dsmltools.org/> have some GPL/MPL code
for working with DSML.
