No time wasted. I was merely pointing out the differences between NDS/MAD
and LDAP.

Don't forget, NDS (at least) has been around for 7 years, and has a large
development staff. So it's no wonder that it'll do a lot of stuff. :-) It's
a mature product.

No reason why you have to emulate ALL the features of some one else's
directory service. The idea you had was great, and eminently useful. I say
keep it up.
