LinuxCBT feat. OpenLDAP Edition focuses on the common Linux
Unix directory services application: OpenLDAP. It is a module of LinuxCBT Directory Services Edition.



OpenLDAP provides a lightweight, central information directory service for countless applications, including general user authentication services. This results in reduced administrative overhead. OpenLDAP also supports replication and encryption, promoting high-availability and security. Furthermore, knowledge of OpenLDAP prepares you to work comfortably with Open Source and commercial LDAP variants.



Let LinuxCBT feat. OpenLDAP Edition cost-effectively teach you Linux
Unix directory skills.



Recommended Prerequisites for:



Any LinuxCBT Operating System Course (Classic/EL-4
5/SUSE/Debian Editions)

Open mind & determination to master Linux and related open-source applications

Access to a Linux or Solaris system to follow the exercises
