I agree that the JTA will flush everything out.  *HOWEVER*, a key detail
to that will be that people realize what things like Winbindd can be
used for, beyond just Samba file services.  E.g., remember that Samba
just provides Winbindd, Samba doesn't just provide Winbindd for Samba
only.  ;->

For ISP/ASPs, basic auth/dir/name might be optional knowledge.  But for
enterprise administrators, I think we'll be referring back to basic
auth/dir/name in other exams.  I think the JTA will show this if we go
with the organization I've been pitching.

But we'll get to that when we get to that.  For now, just remember to
keep in mind that not all services only work for one other service.  In
fact, many services work for many others.

I was shying away from getting too deep with LDAP in the first exam out
of sheer breadth.  Focus on the key significance and services of
enterprise-wide auth/dir/name, and then worry about more advanced LDAP
schema and services later.
