John's LDAP Web Interface
Overview
Welcome to John's LDAP Web Interface. Out
of interest I have developed an LDAP Web Interface (LDAP Web) using Apache,
PHP and SSL tools. Myself and a few of my colleagues at Hewlett Packard use
this web interface to manipulate Microsoft's Active Directory as it is more
user-friendly compared to Adsiedit, LDP and LDIFDE, and also provides a
common look and feel. The web interface, as stated, is an LDAP interface with
the majority of testing done against Active Directory and Openldap. I have
also done basic testing against Novell's eDirectory and Sun's Iplanet
directories.
The Sourceforge.net project summary page is located here.
License
The LDAP Web Interface code is being
released under the GNU General Public License (GPL), version 2. This is the same license used by the Linux kernel.
