Hi everybody, I did some research and found out that what I'm trying to achieve is not exactly the task of a directory service. I wanted to integrate users from different Databases into the directory service and sync the changes between them. To achieve this you should use an Identity Management System, which basically acts as a synchronization and propagation service between different resources like RDBMS, LDAP, etc.. I found an open source solution which fits my needs. It's called Apache Syncope (http://syncope.apache.org/) Anyway it would still be nice to get the sample partition implementation from <elecarny>, so that i can use it for future implementations :)
