TODO: This file

ldadp is an LDAP to Active Directory Proxy.

Actually it's more of a translator between LDAP schemes,
presenting an LDAP scheme to Unix/Linux clients suitable
for authentication via pam and nsswitch using an Active
Directory server as the data source (which already speaks
LDAP, but doesn't supply mandatory fields for the Unix
world, like uidNumber, loginShell, homeDirectory etc.)

LDAP and ASN1 related parser/formatter etc. taken from
tinyldap[1] by Felix von Leitner.
