Forgive my ignorance on this topic - I would like to build an LDAP server at our shop. We a native 2k3 domain and would like this Cent LDAP server to pull in all the info from AD. Then periodically, have the Cent server sync with new addition/subtractions of AD. Is there a How-To out there somewhere that someone can point me to? I don't want to recreate the wheel by hand-inputing information into the Cent LDAP server. TIA and thanks for the patience and understanding. -- Best regards, Chris Motorized vehicles only.

I suggest you also try nahant-list, rhel5 list and fedora-directory's list: I suspect that the RHEL lists will have (proportionally) more people interested in in doing it than Centos, and the Fedora Directory Server project is where bleeding-edge gets talked about. -- Cheers John -- spambait 1aaaaaaa at coco.merseine.nu Z1aaaaaaa at coco.merseine.nu Please do not reply off-list

If you want replication between the two then it would be another beast...FDS has feature to sync with M$ AD search on FDS guide on redhat website is way to go.
