I would suggest starting here - http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/PluginsThank you for Replay. As per FAQ I need to write my own plug-in for storing ldap entries into mssql/oracle database. I have seen slapi to write Server plug-in and examples provided at /opt/fedora-ds/plugins/slapd/slapi/examples. But I am not finding sample code for writing plug-in for Backend databases. Is there any sample code for writing plug-in for backend database?
For a pure backend database plugin, your best bet would be to start with the source code for the chaining database (which is an LDAP backend).
http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/ldapserver/ldap/servers/plugins/chainingdb/?root=dirsecHowever, for your purposes, you might find it easier to write a data interoperability plugin. We had a Netscape customer who did this very same thing - write a data interop plugin which put an LDAP frontend on their Oracle backend database (really just a simple LDAP<->SQL converter) - and, in case you were wondering, no, the code is proprietary to that particular customer (this was a few years ago). There are some examples for data interop here - http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/ldapserver/ldap/servers/slapd/test-plugins/?root=dirsec
I am referring this link to write plug-in. http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/dir-server/plugin/7.1/pluginTOC.htmlThank you Eswar S**************************************************************************** **************************** This e-mail and attachments contain confidential information from HUAWEI, which is intended only for the person or entity whose address is listed above.
