Chapter 3. An Introduction to LDAP

In Chapter 2, "A Brief History of Directories," we talked about the history of directories and how LDAP was born. In this chapter, we take a much closer look at LDAP, both in its role as a network protocol and as a set of models that guide you in constructing and accessing your directory. We'll also examine two other important aspects of LDAP: the LDAP application programming interfaces (APIs), which you can use to develop LDAP applications; and the LDAP Data Interchange Format (LDIF), which is a common, text-based format for exchanging directory data between systems.
