"Integrating with Active Directory to some extent, for example, shouldn't be incredibly difficult " I get confused on this one. I am trying to implement some simple software at work, and the software (not Open Source) is supposed to be LDAP compliant. The Unix admin in charge of the LDAP Directory insists that Active Directory itself isn't LDAP compliant, and that when people gear their software towards Active Directory they "break LDAP." So far, his comment is correct. The product keeps trying to pull in windows AD objects just because the server is running Windows. Frustrating. Sorry, I guess my point is, that for some of us, it gets really difficult to figure out who is breaking what in terms of compatibility.
