+ - Best/easiest Linux LDAP Solution? 0

Submitted by Anonymous Coward on Tuesday September 06, 2011 @01:30PM

An anonymous reader writes "I thought I'd ask the wealth of knowledge here at Slashdot for some advice about implementing an LDAP solution at our lab. Actually, what I'm looking for is the most easily setup and subsequently managed LDAP solution using open source tools and applications. I don't have any real experience with LDAP on Linux and would prefer using some sort of GUI to manage and configure it. I was hoping there was a kind of all-in-one distro that focused on LDAP, but I haven't been able to find one. Any suggestions?"

Lucidus writes "George Lucas has apparently decided to make further changes to the original Star Wars movies when they are released on Blu-Ray, according to Time magazine. "The most egregious and lamented of the purported changes: when Darth Vader throws Emperor Palpatine to his death in Return of the Jedi, he now cries a superfluous (and silly-sounding) 'Noooo!'""
