Customer Reviews & Comments
I've been thinking about deploying LDAP in the Solaris Environment and last year I bought a previous version of this book (ASIN: 0130306789 ), but it was really a disappointing experience. The book was telling mostly about what LDAP is, but not much about how to use it in Solaris. The new version is great. It tells you what you can use LDAP for, how to plan, deploy and support services. It also covers recent version of Sun Directory Server (5.2) and 2 the most popular versions of Solaris (8 and 9). Highly highly recommended.
