John, There's a comparatively new mailing list for people who need to discuss the interoperability between (especially Open)LDAP and other products, a subject that's OT on the OpenLDAP list. A number of clued-up and helpful people (who don't all share my views :) subscribe, who don't subscribe to this list; I've written to the list master to see if he's mind if Samba people subscribe for discussion of LDAP-specific Samba questions. Typical topics might be: Which OpenLDAP version to use How to configure it best for Samba How to configure BDB DSE/DIT architecture SSL/TLS configuration ACL design Security Sources of information on the web, FAQs. We'll see if we're welcome there. --Tonni -- mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.billy.demon.nl -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
