Fedora DS released
Finally we have an alternative to OpenLDAP: Fedora Directory Server! This is great news for everyone who's used the old Netscape or iPlaner Directory server. Not only do we get the software "for free", the source is also available! For all other LDAP enthusiast, it's definitely worthwhile to take a look at FDS, it's quite an improvement over OpenLDAP IMO, at least from an administrative perspective.
I've just started playing with this release, and so far it's looking pretty good, installation and setup was a breeze on my Fedora Core 3/4 system. I expect to have more news once I've moved more data from my old OpenLDAP directories over to FDS (Fedora Directory Server, I have no idea if that's an appropriate acronym). Head over to the [http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Main_Page|Fedora Directory Server Wiki] site for more information, and Downloads.
