RE: Looking for a good LDAP book
You may also want to check out Implementing LDAP by WROX press. It is
pretty generic to LDAP but does touch on Netscape and OpenLDAP.

I read most of:
<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1578700701/ref=pd_bxgy_img_2/
002-7184386-1355201?v=glance&s=books>
Understanding and Deploying Ldap Directory Services (MacMillan Network
Architecture and Development Series),
1-57870-070-1
at Safari.com and, all and all, it explained LDAP pretty well although
I do not recall too many examples and I believe that hands-on
experience helps understand things better than only reading about it.
But before I read it I pretty much did not even know the point of LDAP
and after reading most of it I knew what it was and what it is good
for.
However, the only LDAP servers I recall being mentioned in it were
Netscape's and possibly (probably; its been a while), the UM LDAP
server that (to the best of my understanding) went on to become
OpenLDAP.
There is another book, however, that I would like to read as well,
