Hello All,
I hope that you are well. Please forgive me if this is an out there
question, with some of the changes that I read below in Richard's annoucement,
how well will FDS 1.0 play with Sun's DS 5.x ? Anybody with any thoughts on this
? I am referring to replication to and from for instance.
Cheers,
Aly.

now have access to the code for the console and administration engine as well as
the previously open sourced LDAP engine. This release uses the Apache httpd
engine as its administration server, and includes mod_nss - a rewrite of mod_ssl
which uses the Mozilla NSS crypto engine. The 1.0 release, in addition to its
many other features such as LDAPv3, Multi-Master Replication, and Windows
Synchronization, includes support for MD5, SHA-256, SHA-384, and SHA-512
password hashing, as well as many bug fixes. Fedora Directory Server 1.0
furthers the evolution and democratization of open source software in making
this powerful, enterprise proven technology available to all. It is a boon for
developers who are now able to port the full package - LDAP engine, console, and
admin engine - to many different platforms.
