[KLUG Members] LDAP & AD?

[Bruce Smith]

Our Engineering department is looking to buy a package which claims to
_require_ Active Directory.  They say it will NOT WORK with any other
LDAP server, commercial or open source.  They come right out and say
that it will "not work", as opposed to "it's not supported with any
other LDAP server".

Are they feeding me a line of crap, or are there really features that AD
has, which no other LDAP server can do?
