LDAP

Can anyone point me to info on running an LDAP server under OSX? It's nice to be able to authenticate using an existing Windows network, but we are phasing out Windows on the server side due to its enormous cost, security problems, etc. Mac OS X Server 10.1.x supports LDAP lookups, but does not include an LDAP server. Any hints?

If you have the developers tools installed on your mac, you could download openldap from www.openldap.org and compile it. I use it on Linux and authenticate OSX clients (Jaguar 10.2) to it now.

Let me know if you need some help...

No LDAP server on OS X server? Surely you jest?? I was convinced that all OS X releases could serve LDAP out of the box, although I never really looked into it..... cant you set up the stucture in Netinfo and point clents to your IP? I could have sworn I saw netinfod bound to en0 on the prot monitor, so I thought that was the LDAP server.....
please update me...
