Re: [WISPA] LDAP

You would use LDAP when you need directory services. An example might be 
using RADIUS to contact an LDAP server for Authentication. Another use 
may be to have single sign on across multiple servers.

[WISPA] LDAP

2008-01-27 Thread Mike Hammett
Someone asked why I didn't use some sort of directory system like eDirectory, 
LDAP, Active Directory, etc. within my WISP.  I shrugged my shoulders and said 
I dunno, that's just not how I've seen things.  A friend of mine also once told 
me that I should have an LDAP server, but I forget how\why it would be used.

Those of you using LDAP (or another directory system), how are you using it?
