What is LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol)?

CBT Nuggets trainer John McGovern gives an overview on Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP). LDAP is a solution to store information about particular users of the network and the network resources. LDAP allows you to have a hierarchical directory service, often compared to something like a phone book.

Hello sir...Thank u for video

[@Jim892]

Sir, you are just explaining how active directory domain works. The video would have been more informative if it touch based upon LDAP wrt. multiple operating system environment. You are repeating the same story differently.

Exactly. Everyone on the internet just explaining "what" it is, not going into "how" to build one, smh
