LDAPsearch for term

Lightweight Directory Access ProtocolAn X.500-related Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) protocol that clients can use to read and write Directory information. LDAP is used to publish Directory information such as telephone numbers and e-mail addresses. The Directory features available to LDAP clients are dependent upon the features built into the LDAP server and the LDAP client; some clients have the ability to read and write data; others can only read Directory data.Web browsers and e-mail programs can query an LDAP-compliant directory (for example, Novell eDirectory).LDAP allows a client to search through a large database of addresses, phone numbers, and people stored on a server.
