Hi, I ported SEDA version of ApacheDS to MINA version in 'mina-port' branch and it runs without any exceptions for now. But I was not able to test much because I lost the URL to LDAP client Alex told me before and test profile file. :( It would be nice give me that URL and profile. Anyway, the port was done very smoothly without any complex issues, and so I expect it will run without any additional issues. I want to confirm it from as many users as possible. Cheers, Trustin PS: You'll have to build apacheds (core and protocol), mina snapshot and copy their jars into your local maven repository because the remote repository is not yet up-to-date. -- what we call human nature is actually human habit -- http://gleamynode.net/
