Hi all,

I'm very, very to read about fedora (and Redhat) ldap server. It is just 
great and I interpret it as a sign, that Redhat (and probably fedora) 
are to support central identity-management (and hopefully 
configuration-management) using LDAP. That's something I've been missing 
for quite some time.....

However, personally I'm more interested in USING LDAP than in developing 
a LDAP-server. Wouldn't dare to touch it's code. ;-)

So I'm someone to ask questions like "how can I make fedora to query 
LDAP for printers which the given computer might use and push this 
information to cups" or "can I store in LDAP that a certain group of 
computers (running fedora-linux) should only allor lgoins from 8 a.m. to 
8 p.m. but should deny login during the night" etc.

Asking such questions on openldap-mailinglists would not be desired....

Would such questions be on-topic here? Or where would my ideas and 
questions be welcome? What's the intended focus of this mailinglist?

-- 
CU,
    Patrick.
