RE: Border directories

Last I checked, as the information is stored in a directory to begin
with,
LDAP is not a middleman, but is doing things rather directly. 

LDAP is just a protocol, all protocols are middlemen

Doing an HTTP
Get presumes that this will find it in a Directory.  Probably you will
find
that your HTTP needs a perl cgi which actually talks LDAP behind the
scenes.

More likely talk to a database.

I was never a fan of either CGI or Perl. 

Don't forget HTTP is not a Directory Access Protocol, LDAP is, and the
certs
are stored in a Directory.

Who says so??? They are wrong in many cases.
