Hi,
I've developed a system that synchronizes employees information (such as first name. phone numbers etc.) among all the applications in our organization. This application pulls employees information from all the applications, then, according to a table it reads from a configuration file it decides which system should be used as the source system for each field and then, if that field has changed it sends an update to all the relevant applications. During this process it saves a local copy of this information in a SQL database and provides a WebService that allows other applications to access all the employees information.
We have recently installed a new VOIP device. This VOIP machine knows how to update its directory based on LDAP syncronization with an LDAP server, unfortunately it turned out to be quite difficult to specify an LDAP filter.
I thought that it might be better if the sync application I developed could also answer LDAP requests and act as a stand alone LDAP server that provides the information stored in its database.
Is it doable? are there any classes I could use (like those of the DirectoryServices namespace for example)...
TIA
Yuval.
