RE: Do you have suggestions for LDAP book ?

[Franz Josef Staiger <fjstaiger@yahoo.co.uk>]

Reinhard,

I have read already the first 3 chapters of the book
and the part of LDAP and Perl . I have seen also the
index, I think it is complete. I am a complete
newcomer ( I am student and do not have much time for
LDAP ) and I think it is very helpful for people like
me wanting to start with LDAP.
I will send you an update of my opinion when I
finished it.
