Hello,

Linbox Directory Server 2.0.0 is now available for download at
http://lds.linbox.org

The Linbox Directory Server (LDS) is a Free Software project that
features:
 * user authentication and management thanks to LDAP and Kerberos
 * an extensible, nice looking and AJAX powered PHP web interface called
LMC (Linbox Management Console), provided with 6 modules:
   * Users and groups management
   * SAMBA accounts and shares management
   * DNS/DHCP management
   * Printing management
   * Email delivery management
   * Web proxy blacklist management
 * a Python dedicated management API for LDAP, SAMBA and
SQUID (core of the LDS and the LMC)
 * a policy system, that will allow to define users right on network
ressources

New features and improvements are:
 * DNS/DHCP management
 * Norwegian translation

The DNS/DHCP module allows to manage DNS zones and DHCP subnets for a
typical LAN environment.

The Open-Xchange module is now deprecated and no more supported.

This looks like an interesting package. I do wonder what sorts of vulnerabilities this would introduce to a server...
