										 |  |  |   LDAP Account Manager (LAM) manages user, group and host accounts in an LDAP | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   directory. LAM runs on any webserver with PHP4/5 support and connects to your | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   LDAP server unencrypted or via SSL/TLS. | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   Currently LAM supports these account types: Samba 2 and 3, Unix, Kolab 2, | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   address book entries, NIS mail aliases and MAC addresses. There is a tree | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   viewer included to allow access to the raw LDAP attributes. You can use | 
					
						
							|  |  |  |   templates for account creation and use multiple configuration profiles. |
