I want to install ldap on F8 for use with evolution. I did a quick

The FAQ says explains how fedora-ds relates to openldap. However, which
one do I install? Does it matter? Does evolution work with either one?

yes, both follow the standards for LDAP v2 & v3

You may have some challenges installing fedora-ds on Fedora 8...at least
from my monitoring of the fedora directory mail list. OpenLDAP is simply
installed, probably a little better known and in wider use.

That said, fedora-ds does have some GUI utils that just aren't available
for openldap.

Evolution is relatively indifferent to which LDAP server you use
(fedora-ds/openldap/microsoft/SunDS/eDirectory/etc.)

Thank you!

I've installed openldap, and I'm reading the instructions from RH. It says I have to edit /etc/openldap/slapd.conf:

suffix     "dc=your-domain,dc=com"

Now I want this for my lan only. I don't have a fully qualified domain name. What do I use? Can I use localhost localdomain? I don't suppose I can use verizon.net, can I?

Thanks!






Or in my case, I've used

suffix		"listName=momillett.org"
