Re: Oracle backend for slapd

[Aaron Stromas <astromas@us.oracle.com>]

oracle's ldap server has oracle 8 as backend. according to the development
group it uses a special db schema and lots of clever tricks. unfortunately,
i don't know more than that. when asked about details i was reassured that
it takes a lot of expertise in db internals to accomplish that.
