Yes, that`s one option I`ve looked at, but I also need to manage shares and restart the samba service when the config has been updated so it would be better to have a library that managed samba directly. But if I cannot find any other alternative, LDAP might be the best solution for my problem.

Maybe I don't understand your problem. It sounds to me like your trying to make this way more difficult than it needs to be. Also it sounds to me like your trying to assign the same phone number to multiple people. (which is fine) But doesn't make a lot of sense to me in a practical application.

Let me rephrase my first statement...You can use the admin for fine grained control of your data formats and characters. But don't use the Database to control the characters and formats. Use the database as a storage and make sure that anything you store gets cleaned. n On Tue, Sep 21, 2010 at
