Translations:Centralized authentication using OpenLDAP/11/en

Since data is not fed to the database in this ASCII-art like manner, every node of such a tree must be defined. To name such nodes, LDAP uses a naming scheme. Most LDAP distributions (including OpenLDAP) already contain quite a number of predefined (and general approved) schemas, such as the inetOrgPerson, or a frequently used schema to define users which Unix/Linux boxes can use, called posixAccount. Note there are GUI web based tools to make managing LDAP painless: see Working with OpenLDAP for an non-exhaustive list.
