OpenLDAP Samba Domain Controller On Ubuntu 7.10 | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials
This document is a step by step guide for configuring Ubuntu 7.10 as a Samba Domain Controller with an LDAP backend (OpenLDAP). The point is to configure a server that can be comparable, from a central authentication point of view, to a Windows Server 2003 Domain Controller. The end result will be a server with an LDAP directory for storing user, group, and computer accounts. A Windows XP Professional SP2 workstation will be able to join the domain once properly configured. Please note that you do not have a fully comparable Windows domain controller at this time. Do not kid yourself, this guide only gets you a server with LDAP authentication. Of course this can be expanded to include slave servers to spread out authentication over multiple networks. Please also note that it took me approximately two and a half weeks to compile this information and get it working. The same functionality can be had in Windows in less than four hours (and this includes operating system installation). In my humble opinion the open source community will need to work on this side of Linux in order for it to be a true alternative to Windows.
Higgins Project Home
"Higgins is an open source Internet identity framework designed to integrate identity, profile, and social relationship information across multiple sites, applications, and devices. Higgins is not a protocol, it is software infrastructure to support a consistent user experience that works with all popular digital identity protocols, including WS-Trust, OpenID, SAML, XDI, LDAP, and so on." "The heart of the Higgins user experience is the i-card - a visual metaphor for a set of digital identity data about you, someone you know, or a website you use."

LDAP Schema Design
It is possible to make one LDAP directory serve many applications in an organisation. This has the advantage of reducing the effort required to maintain the data, but it does mean that the design must be thought out very carefully before implementation starts.
LDAP directories are structured as a tree of entries, where each entry consists of a set of attribute-value pairs describing one object. The objects are often people, organisations, and departments, but can be anything at all. Schema is the term used to describe the shape of the directory and the rules that govern its content.
A hypothetical organisation is described, with requirements for “white pages” directory service as well as a wide range of authentication, authorisation, and application-specific directory needs. The issues arising from the LDAP standards are discussed, along with the problems of maintaining compatibility with a range of existing LDAP clients.
A plan is proposed for the layout of the directory tree, with particular emphasis on avoiding the need to re-organise it later. This involves careful separation of the data describing people, departments, groups, and application-specific objects. A simple approach to entry design is shown, based on the use of locally-defined auxiliary object classes. The effects of schema design on lookup performance are discussed. Some design tricks and pitfalls are presented, based on recent consulting experience.

Faster LDAP search with vector-space engine
The code as presented in the article will enable you to efficiently query structured LDAP data quickly by using Perl and a vector-space search engine to search and display records from your Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) database, while compensating for typographical and spelling errors automatically.
