Introduction to Directories and LDAP
We've all used a directory service of one sort or another...

  • www.company.com

resolved via the Domain Name System

 

  • finger someone@host

host is resolved first via DNS, then someone is resolved either locally or via a directory of wider, perhaps global, context

  • email someone@host

next | top
