Hello, Adam Theo here.

I am wondering if there are any web-based tools to allow users (the public) to create an LDAP account/entry in my LDAP directory. Basically as a open and public account registration service. Thanks.

yeah, it would certainly be doable in Perl, but unfortunately, I'm a crappy programmer. I was hoping that there were some solid, pre-existing web-based tools already out there. Thanks anyway, though.

i think what slarti wanted to say is that you should have a look at this site and download the perl modules you need

unfortunately i dont know of any but i'm quite sure with one of these modules the code is as complex as:

Code:
CreateLdapUser(username,pwd,server);


should not take more than 20 lines or so...there might even be an example in some modules documentation...
