I'm on it, but i won't use LDAP (makes no sense in my environment) but a MySQL DB
queried with PHP. It will take some time, but i'll post it if i have something to
show.
By the way: secure communication and secure 'extranets' are something big consulting
companies are trying to make a lot of bucks right now. My brother just calls me with a
story of a IBM consulting subsidiary charging 75.000 $ for a relatively simple S-MIME
implementation for Lotus Notes. So if you guys are going to become rich instead of
famous....;->...
