I played with OpenLDAP last night for several hours and came to the conclusion that someone somewhere must have made a really simple LDAP server program. I don't need replication or a supreme server....just a simple server for 7-10 users who don't need a CIA level security.

Does anyone know of a straight forward, simple, LDAP server(or some other program....it doesn't have to be LDAP) that can be used to share contact information and possibly calendars? I'll take contact information first.

If the problem is managing the data rather than configuring the server itself (which is pretty easy), you might consider somehing like the MySQL backend or one of the scripting language backends. That way you can use OpenLDAP to present an LDAP interface to data stored in a place you can manipulate with more familiar tools. I'm using the perl backend, for example, to provide a gateway to some particular addresses stored in a MySQl contact database (no, the MySQL backend won't do the filtering that I need). It's really pretty easy. Alternatively, I'm not sure how someone would make a simpler LDAP server. There's not much to the server itself at all - the confusion that I had came almost entirely from setting up a sensible dn and managing the data that's in the bdb backend. Perhaps that's just me, though. :) --Danny
