Nagios Configured by LDAP

[Allan Clark]

Hi;
In my company, we have a complex series of firewalled zones within each
datacenter.  We also intend to use Nagios from one datacenter to check
another's external services.  We use LDAP extensively, and deploy everything
-- including Nagios -- with a redundant.

I've done some initial work to configure Nagios using LDAP based on
current-CVS Nagios-3.0.1.

The only past work towards this that I found was an email from Benoit
Mortier [1], who I have contacted and he's interested in providing test
data.  The edits are in base/config.c, base/nagios.c, and
xdata/xoddefault.c.  I'm writing to:

1) advertise the short writeup:
http://www.nagioscommunity.org/wiki/index.php/LDAP-Configured_Nagios
2) poll interest from other users who want to beta-test and argue over
schema
3) verify that I'm not wasting my time.

This work currently takes main config, hosts, and services from LDAP and
passes a "nagios -v nagios.cfg"
