LDAP...

[Markus Schabel]

Hello!

Some questions about DHCP and LDAP (again). I know the LDAP patch from
Brian Masney (http://home.ntelos.net/~masneyb/) to read the DHCP config
from an LDAP directory - which works here without problems for over one
year. What is keeping that patch from the official source-tree? Can
there be anything done to get it in?

I'd like to store the active leases in my LDAP directory - which at the
moment works fine with a perl script which parses the lease-file, but I
guess the better solution would be to implement this in the server? As
far as I can see all the functions regarding the lease-file are in db.c?
So I would have to replace the db.c with a new db_ldap.c which stores
all lease data in LDAP? Would you like to see this in the offical source
and configurable at compile time?

I'd like to use the ietf-draft from 2001 about "LDAP Schema for DHCP"
which has expired, but AFAIKT there is no newer version and it seems
well-tought for me. Any comments about this?
