Why not? Can you be more specific as to why you think that LDAP is not suitable? Thanks, Christian
I believe that LDAP can be the core of this toolset.

Why not put everything into a MySQL db? :) LDAP is a fine tool but it was not designed to do some of the things that other tools do. We are not yet at the point where all we have the the LDAP hammer so everything looks like a db-nail. --bill ***** "The information transmitted is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential, proprietary, and/or privileged material.

Too many features layered on a single tool. Haq the tool and the dependencies will cripple your service offering. Now I don't want to say that you can't do this on your own, I am uncomfortable with such tactics being promoted as the one true way that all modern thinkers should adopt.

Well, it depends on what you want to use LDAP for. For example, take a naive approach: your router crashes. It comes back up. It receives 130,000 prefixes that it needs to validate. For each prefix, your router must do an LDAP query.

Relatively heavyweight connections and no caching. Rgds, -drc
