The current difference is all http:// have been converted to https:// and a few URL domains and paths have changed.

ldb

- -ldb is a LDAP-like embedded database. It is not at all -LDAP -standards compliant, so if you want a standards compliant database then please -see the excellent OpenLDAP -project.

- -What ldb does is provide a fast database with an LDAP-like API -designed to be used within an application. In some ways it can be seen -as a intermediate solution between key-value pair databases and a real -LDAP database.

- -ldb is the database engine used in Samba4. - -

Features

- -The main features that separate ldb from other solutions are: - -

Safe multi-reader, multi-writer, using byte range locking -
LDAP-like API -
fast operation -
choice of local tdb or remote LDAP backends -
integration with talloc -
schema-less operation, for trivial setup -
modules for extensions (such as schema support) -
easy setup of indexes and attribute properties -
LDIF for import/export -
ldbedit tool for database (via LDIF) editing (reminiscent of 'vipw') -

- -

Documentation

- -Currently ldb is completely lacking in programmer or user -documentation. This is your opportunity to make a contribution! Start -with the public functions declared in ldb.h -and the example code in the tools -directory. Documentation in the same docbook format used by Samba -would be preferred. - -

Discussion and bug reports

- -ldb does not have its own mailing list or bug tracking system. Please -use -the samba-technical -mailing list, and the Samba -bugzilla bug tracking system. - -
