interesting ldap application

\_ I just thought I would share with the group an interesting
\_ application I just implemented.

Cool.

\_ Try pulling that one off on any MS box.

Just to be contrary, most of that can be independent of OS. The
biggest problem would be if exchange doesn't allow pop (imap?)
scanning of email before a 'normal' client pulls it down. But I
imagine there are hooks for it in outlook and such. Then hit mssql
through odbc/ado and form your message, talk smtp and presto, done.

Of course, I'd show an example, if only I had a m$ box. :-)

The trick I did back in NT4 days was a http-auth protected perl script
under IIS that would edit the boot.ini file and then trigger a reboot
to linux.

<*> kernel X.Y.ZZ
< > kernel X.Y.BB
< > nt 4
[reboot]

Remote control to real OS. :-) My boss had to go watch it magically
reboot when I needed something off the linux side.
