mySQL and LDAP

[Ron Beck]

Is anyone using mySQL as an LDAP database backend?  I'm looking into
using LDAP as a means to keep a user directory (employee id, name, phone
#, email, etc...).  Unfortunately it seems that most of what I've found
recommend using Berkeley DB or Gnu's GDBM.  I don't want yet another
database to learn and care for.

Any suggestions and links would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks & regards,
Ron
