umm...

not sure who posted that ldap isn't a database... ldap isn't a database
like
oracle, mysql, sybase, etc.. it's meant to be a kind of lightweight
database/protocol for establishing user address book kinds of
information,
normally used for user id/auth processes.

Twas me. LDAP is not a database it is a protocol for accessing a
directory service which is the abstraction layer for the actual data
repository namespace.
