[Fedora-directory-devel] [Fedora-directory-users] Any recommendation for a decent up to date LDAP book?

[Chun Tat David Chu]

I would like to learn more about the LDAP, but a lot of the book I found on
amazon.com are more than 2-3 years old.  I am afraid they're out of date.

Is there any good books that you guys would like to suggest?  I am
interested in in-depth LDAP explaination/usages/design/schema design.
I don't really want to be product specific because the last 2 years, we
already switched 3 directory server.  From Sun DS to OpenLDAP to Fedora DS.

Thanks in advance!

David

What makes you assume that because a book is 3 years old that it's 
outdated? The LDAP standard hasn't changed since 1997; it's still at 
version 3.

"Understanding and Deploying LDAP Directory Services" is still the best 
book you could hope to read.
