I have been searching for some tools (free software tools) and i have found some:
Apache Directory Server: looks good but i dont like the java stuff. "Apache Directory Server is an open source LDAP directory server implemented in java." GOsa: looks very good and development in php, could be a good choice, i think WBSAgnitio: (from Spain) looks good too and it's being implemting in the public administration.. it's like a complete OS with a web interface. or maybe Fedora Directory Server, RedHat/CentOS directory... maybe a RedHat server may not be a problem to work with Debian servers ¿? 2010/2/23 Germana Oliveira <germanaolivei...@gmail.com> > So, you're telling me that ADS/LDAP do the same thing you can do just with > LDAP (without the interface) .. i mean, a directory service.
