Description: ------------ First of all, I think this package is awesome! I would, however, like to see LDAP support included. If there is already, I apologize, but I could not find it in any documentation anywhere. Ideally, it should have (at the very least) TLS, Bind, Compare, Abandon, and Unbind -- basically the commands for doing search / select queries. If there was support for Create, Update, Delete options, that'd be spectacular. Thanks!!!

Shouldn't LDAP stuff be in Net_LDAP or Net_LDAP2 ? Not sure how that should go into a database abstraction layer, unless I'm misunderstanding the request ?

LDAP is just another database. So why wouldn't it be in a db abstraction layer? It was part of the "DB" package, and I would expect that any package which appears to be replacing something else may want to meet the feature set of it's predecessor.

Ernie, it would be cool but I don't have the necessary resources for a MDB2 LDAP driver. Maybe you can port one of these? http://pear.php.net/package/DB_Ldap http://pear.php.net/package/DB_Ldap2
