LDAP and Linux

[Anthony Hologounis]

thanks for the response. Yes, I am using OpenLDAP with Redhat 7.2. I am 
trying to build a global address book.
I am using this site as a starting point.
http://www-105.ibm.com/developerworks/education.nsf/linux-onlinecourse-bytitle/A40882D27EB5A65986256C310069BB9E?Open&t=gr,lnxw73=LDAP

I'm kind of new at this but from what I understand, LDAP is a directory 
service like NDS and AD. I figure
its a good idea then to have some knowledge as to how it works.
