 1.1 LDAP
 ========
 
 LDAP, “the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol”, is a communication
 protocol for directory applications defined in RFC 1777.
 
    Quoted from RFC 1777:
 
      [LDAP] is designed to provide access to the X.500 Directory while
      not incurring the resource requirements of the Directory Access
      Protocol (DAP). This protocol is specifically targeted at simple
      management applications and browser applications that provide
      simple read/write interactive access to the X.500 Directory, and is
      intended to be a complement to the DAP itself.
 
    LDAP servers usually store (but are not limited to) information about
 people such as their name, phone number, email address, office location,
 etc...  More information about LDAP can be found at
 <http://www.openldap.org/>.
 
    EUDC requires external support to access LDAP directory servers
