Novell's NDS™ Developer's Guide "Novell's hard-earned experience deploying NDS in thousands of customer sites, supporting millions of daily users, has taught us a lot about how to build applications and services that really get the most out of a directory service. We're glad to share that experience with developers like you through this book. "Building directory-enabled applications and services with NDS means delivering more value, more customer benefit. That's the promise of directories — giving developers more time and technologies with which to innovate, and giving customers more return for their investment. Together, it's an unbeatable combination." — Dr. Eric Schmidt, Chairman and CEO, Novell, Inc. Leverage the Power of Novell Directory Services

Review:
Novell's NDS Developer's Guide is a no-nonsense compendium of the various techniques for programming for Novell Directory Services (NDS)--the company's cornerstone architecture for distributed network resource management. The book is authored by several Novell engineers and addresses both high-level and low-level programming techniques.
About the Author:
It opens with a brief introduction to NDS that lays out the importance of directory services from a developer's perspective. While coders somewhat familiar with the Novell architecture will appreciate this chapter's brevity, it lacks the examples necessary for the totally uninitiated. The remainder of the first part of the book covers high-level access to NDS through ActiveX controls, Delphi, JavaBeans, open database connectivity (ODBC), and Web scripting. These sections illustrate how to exploit NDS from popular rapid application development and work with the Novell ODBC Driver for NDS to query NDS resources using SQL.
In the longer second part of the book, low-level programming topics are covered. The authors explain the NDS Cross-Platform API and the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)--an important industry standard for directory services. Next the book covers Novell's easy-to-use NetBasic scripting language. The Java Naming and Directory Interface (JNDI) is covered next, followed by a discussion of Active Directory Services. The book wraps up with techniques for extending the NetWare Administrator and Novell's Java-based ConsoleOne utilities.
A companion CD-ROM contains sample code and Novell Developer Kits to get you started. If you need a practical reference to NDS programming, this guide is as complete as any you will find. --Stephen W. Plain
