Lesson plan

Slapd

The SLAPD (Standalone LDAP Daemon) and SLURPD (Stand-alone LDAP update replication daemon) are directory services used over Internet Protocol (IP) networks. These protocols originally evolved within the long-running project that developed the LDAP protocol. It was developed at the University of Michigan, and was the first Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) software. Today, many LDAP Server Implementations are derived from the same code base of the original SLAPD and/or evolutions of it.
