[Please CC me, I'm not subscribed] Hi Server team,
with interest I read the recent blog post announcing that slapd will move to a cn=config style configuration for inteprid. I've been using this for a while locally and think this will really easy LDAP maintenance for a lot of admins. On the Debian side of things, this migration is still being prepared. One thing I am working currently on is a package shipping additional common LDAP schemas, as well a a script to load these into slapd on admin request. In the interest of brevity I'll just refer you to http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-openldap-devel/2008-August/002980.html and http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-openldap-devel/2008-August/003015.html for a design rationale. The script currently loads schemas into cn=config setups via slapadd, doing this via an LDAP connection is planned for the future if I can come up with a good infrastructure to authenticate this kind of connection. Feel free to poke at the existing preliminary work at http://playground.yomu.de/debian/pool/main/l/ldap-schema-common/ . If this is at all interesting for Ubuntu Server, please don't hesitate to tell me what you think of the design, what else you need from it, additional schemas it should include, etc. Thank you, keep up the good work, Philipp -- ubuntu-server mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server More info: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ServerTeam
