Introduction to JNDI

JNDI (Java Naming and Directory Interface) is an industry-wide, open interface that gives developers a common interface for navigating the many naming systems that exist in the computing world today. JNDI greatly simplifies the code needed to browse directory services such as eDirectory, X.500, and LDAP.

The LDAP Extensions and Controls for JNDI are LDAP v3-compliant and include support for the virtual list views and server-side sorting controls available on eDirectory. Because it uses LDAP, it has no dependencies on the Novell NetWare Client software.

This course covers LDAP and JNDI along with Novell's JNDI LDAP Extensions.
