Abstract

This paper introduces the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) and its Application Programming Interface (API).In the LDAP client server model,LDAP servers make information about people,organizations,and resources accessible to LDAP clients.Because LDAP is intended to be a global directory service,data is organized hierarchically,starting at a root and branching down into individual entries.At last,we provide a simpe example of an LDAP client written with the Netscape LDAP SDK for C,this example provides a detailed way on how you shoule design your directory tree for a organization with simple data needs.2figs.,4refs.
