[wplug] LDAP help

[Bryan J Smith]

I have to second this recommendation.

You want to create your OUs as if you were using it for everything,
or at least your department/office/whatever you'd normally segment.
Don't OU by service or application, always by org unit, location
(although subdomains/dcs are more typical for that),
and, in most cases (including this fine recommendation), object type (People).

Also, consider further subdomaining, and not using the corporate-level root.
If you can't think of what to use, just "ldap" works
(as does "ads" for ActiveDirectory Services, etc...).
I really try to avoid rooting anything at dc=orgname,dc=tld itself.

I would just stick with ou=People,dc=pavcs, dc=org. Would make for easy integration with auth later on.
