LDAP-UX Client Services simplifies HP-UX system administration by consolidating account and configuration information into a central LDAP directory. This LDAP directory can reside on an HP-UX system, such as Netscape Directory Server 6.x and Red hat Directory Server 7.0/7.1, or the account information could be integrated into Microsoft Windows 2000, 2003 or 2003 R2 Active Directory.
Information provided in this manual specifically outlines the installation and administration tasks of LDAP-UX Client Services with Microsoft Windows 2000/2003 Active Directory.
For information about integration of LDAP-UX Client Services with HP-UX based directories, refer to LDAP-UX Client Services Administrator's Guide (J4269-90063) at http://docs.hp.com/hpux/internet.
