Summary: Review Request: mozldap Alias: mozldap https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=196401 ------- Additional Comments From rmeggins@xxxxxxxxxx 2006-06-22 21:53 EST ------- Sorry. Here is an excerpt that explains the differences between openldap and mozldap: [The reason why we can just replace openldap with mozldap] "... is that there are dozens of apps that require the openldap client libraries. This is a problem for two reasons: 1) the openldap api is different than the mozilla ldap api, in terms of the function parameters, constants, and behavior. In many cases it is only slightly different, and we might be able to mitigate this by either writing a shim layer on top of the mozilla ldap c sdk that makes it look like openldap, or by simply changing the mozilla ldap c sdk to make it like openldap. I prefer the latter. 2) openldap clients expect to be able to use openssl for crypto, while mozilla uses NSS. I don't know of an easy way around this, except perhaps to just automatically import CA certs listed in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf to an NSS cert db. Similarly for clients that use cert based auth, import their keys/certs/password files." -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug, or are watching the QA contact. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
