Is it possible to do ALL management through CLI/LDAP? Do you see many installations in production NOT using the java console or is using it pretty standard?

The java console in my experience, is an occasional convenience, not a necessity. Even so when I want convenience I am more likely to fire up some other ldap management tool, like phpldapadmin, to do quick and easy work. -- Marius Rex <marius@mail.communityconnect.com> Community Connect Inc.
