Ldap Standards Development
Faulkner, March 2003, Pages: 10
X.500 has been around for over a decade, but adoption has been slow for the international standard because it is complex and because its client half, Directory Access Protocol (DAP), is a hefty load for PCs. Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (Ldap), creates a simple protocol for updating and searching directories running on TCP/IP. Ldap standards have evolved to offer various extensions, including whois++ and Solo to support wide area searches. Future extensions will make Ldap the Internet directory service of choice.
