Hi all, Over at Directory we have an initial attempt at an identity solution in place called Triplesec. It does the usual AAA with some additional things like mobile keyfobs however it's authorization policy management features might benefit from this project or there may be some overlap. Here's a link btw for some additional information on tsec:
http://directory.apache.org/triplesec Specifically the following information refers to the authorization policy store and an API to access the information therein which can be stored in LDAP or in an LDIF file (exported from LDAP). http://directory.apache.org/triplesec/guardian-api-users-guide.html http://directory.apache.org/triplesec/authorization-using-guardian-api.html http://directory.apache.org/triplesec/administration-tool-users-guide.html So the big question is there much overlap here? An initial glance tells me there might not be but I may be wrong. Thoughts? Alex On 9/17/07, Filip at Apache <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Noel J.
