System
Requirements
Any systems capable of supporting Microsoft
minimum memory and storage configurations to run on any
Windows platform (95/98/NT/2K/XP) client or server as
well as Unix (Solaris or HPUX) and Linux.
Scalability
At the heart of aeSLAPD is a port
of the University of Michigan SLAPD for
UNIX, plus LDAP v3 extensions. Database capacity is 50
million entries. aeSLAPD
directories have been scaled according to DirectoryMark™ benchmark
specifications:
