[Fedora-directory-users] Any recommendation for a decent up to date LDAP book?

I second that.  "Understanding and Deploying LDAP Directory Services" is a VERY
rich text that covers pretty much everything from A-Z.  I don't know which edition
is out now, but I have the 2nd edition, and it covers the basics as well as
product-specific stuff.  I had also purchased another book, "LDAP Directories
Explained" (Arkills, Addison Wesley), but it was awful in comparison.

| What makes you assume that because a book is 3 years old that it's outdated?
| The LDAP standard hasn't changed since 1997; it's still at version 3.
| 
| "Understanding and Deploying LDAP Directory Services" is still the best book
| you could hope to read.
