  Hi.

 I want to use ApacheDs to proxy ldap requests. (I am not too sure about
 my terminology :) )
 In fact I want it to take two Active directory servers (one particular OU
 from each AD, for example) and consolidate this in a single ldap view

 So ou=users,dc=example1,dc=net will map to ou=one,dc=myldap,dc=net
 And ou=users,dc=example2,dc=net will map to ou=two,dc=myldap,dc=net

 Is that possible, and if so where can I find some information about
 configuring it ?

 What you want to do is what we call a Virtual Directory. ApacheDS does not
 provide such a facility natively, and it's not that simple to code either.

 The only think you can do is to create referrals in ApacheDS, but this
 will just redirect you to the two AD servers when a user will send requests
 to ApacheDS.
