[Fedora-directory-users] Directory Express...customize? separate/relocate?

[Jim Hogan]

I had another thought on this thread....

Our FDS directory will be essentially for internal use, and we only want 
to expose it enough for some of our people to update their records 
through a Web page that pre-authenticates/authorizes them (our PubCookie 
scheme).

Rather than try to separate the DE code onto this server, one thought I 
had last night was to set up a reverse proxy on our PubCookie's portal 
server that proxies the DE pages.  Not sure how this will work out with 
the 2 different cookie regimes.

This notion isn't particularly germane to the Fedora Directory Server 
lists, but I figured I'd throw it up here on the list in case someone 
has already been/done and can offer an opinion.  Otherwise, if I try it 
and it works, I'll let you know!
