Twisted (http://www.twistedmatrix.com) is where you would want to be for something like this. At some point in Zope 3, Twisted and Zope may become more aware of eachother, so my suggestion is to help develop a Twisted-based LDAP server, which could then easily communicate with Zope. Hope this helps, Eron On Sunday 08 December 2002 09:56 am, Stephan Richter wrote:

Hi Luis,
Zope is an application server, where you can run your own LDAP-administration software.
But the LDAP-Server is a standalone server which is not zope !
You can bind users in zope against users in LDAP (with LDAPUserFolder) but this did not mean that zope is a LDAP-Server.
Yes, but imagine the opposite: that you have a contacts database in zope and want it to be useable by, say, mozilla or any other mail client that can query ldap servers for its address book.
Well, start an effort to write an LDAP server on top of Zope. LDAP is a complex protocol; I would be glad to see a Zope-based server. There is an LDAP server module for Twisted you might want to check out for a start.
