How to integrate LDAP with MacOS X Server and NEXTSTEP? |
As of MacOS X Server, Apple's lookupd daemon supports LDAP (using the RFC 2307 schema used by nss_ldap). More information on lookupd is available at http://til.info.apple.com/techinfo.nsf/artnum/n24902. Because the source code to lookupd is now available as part of Darwin's NetInfo project (see http://publicsource.apple.com) it should be possible to back-port this functionality to NEXTSTEP 3.3 and OPENSTEP 4.2, as the Mach IPC interface is similar.

An updated version of LDAPAgent with support for the OpenLDAP 2.x client library and various bug fixes is available in the lukeh-OpenLDAP branch of Services/netinfo/servers/lookupd, in Apple's Darwin CVS repository.

For current versions of Mac OS X, you should use Directory Services to access LDAP servers, as LDAPAgent is no longer supported.
