The DirXML(R) Driver for LDAP synchronizes data between Novell(R) eDirectoryTM and the following LDAP-compliant directories:
This driver runs on all platforms supported by eDirectory and uses the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol to bidirectionally synchronize changes between eDirectory and the connected LDAP-compliant directory.
The driver leverages the change log mechanism in these directories to recognize data changes and communicate them to eDirectory through DirXML. Additional software and changes to the LDAP-compliant directory are not required.
Because of this flexible model for communicating, the driver can synchronize with LDAP-compliant directories running on platforms other than those supported by eDirectory, such as AIX*, HP/UX*, OS/400*, and OS/390*.
