Answer Posted / nimesh maru
Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) is an Internet
protocol for accessing distributed directory services that
act in accordance with X.500 data and service models. LDAP
is an extensible protocol.
Ldap is a client /Server protocol used to access network
directories such as microsoft active directory or NDS.These
directories follow the x.500 standard. The first iteration
of this protocol, Directory access Protocol(DAP) was created
to be front-end client for x.500 directory services. The
idea was that it would be the interface for every service
provided by a directory that followed the x.500 standard.
The x.500 standard ended up being too complex to actually
fully implement, and DAP also was extremely complex and
resource hungry. Scince it is striped down version it is
know as Lightweight.
