OpenLDAP Software is an open source implementation of the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol. The OpenLDAP Project was started in 1998 by Kurt Zeilenga. The project started by cloning the LDAP reference source from the University Of Michigan where a long-running project had supported development and evolution of the LDAP protocol.
The suite includes,  
<UL>
	<LI>slapd - stand-alone LDAP daemon (server)</LI>
	<LI>libraries implementing the LDAP protocol</LI>
	<LI>utilities, tools, and sample clients</LI>
</UL>
Additionally the OpenLDAP Project is home to a number of subprojects:
<UL>
	<LI>JLDAP - LDAP class libraries for Java</LI>
	<LI>JDBC-LDAP - Java JDBC - LDAP Bridge driver</LI>
	<LI>ldapc++ - LDAP class libraries for C++</LI>
</UL>

OpenLdap - Implementation of the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) 

SSSD is a system daemon. Its primary function is to provide access to identity and authentication remote resource through a common framework that can provide caching and offline support to the system. It provides PAM and NSS modules, and in the future will D-BUS based interfaces for extended user information. It provides also a better database to store local users as well as extended user data.

The enterprise-class Open Source LDAP server for Linux. It is hardened by real-world use, is full-featured, supports multi-master replication, and already handles many of the largest LDAP deployments in the world. OpenLDAP and Fedora Directory Server were both derived from the original University of Michigan slapd project. In 1996 the original developers of slapd became Netscape employees and developed Netscape Directory Server, which is now Fedora Directory Server. Its features include:
<ul><li> Multi-Master Replication, to provide fault tolerance and high write performance
</li><li> Scalability: thousands of operations per second, tens of thousands of concurrent users, tens of millions of entries, hundreds of gigabytes of data
</li><li> The codebase has been developed and deployed continuously by the same team for more than a decade
</li><li> Extensive documentation including helpful Installation and Deployment guides
</li><li> Active Directory user and group synchronization
</li><li> Secure authentication and transport (SSLv3, TLSv1, and SASL)
</li><li> Support for LDAPv3
</li><li> On-line, zero downtime, LDAP-based update of schema, configuration, management and in-tree Access Control Information (ACIs)
</li><li> Graphical console for all facets of user, group, and server management
</li></ul>
