Question : Open source alternative to Edirectory

Hi,

I wonder if there's any open source alternative to eDirectory.

A team of students are going to develop a booking system for resources (cars, beamers, etc.). Is there any open source server/software that can provide basic functionality for this?

regards,

henrik

In searching Hotscripts for LDAP, I found these that look interesting:

ezDirectory is a web application written in Perl using CGI and
PerLDAP to interface with an LDAP Directory Server. It stores
contact information of people in an LDAP database using a
unique user ID (UUID) for each contact. It's faily
configurable. The perl scripts are not platform independant
(though they do require PerLDAP), and they can interface with
any LDAP database with only minor configuration adjustments.
The options for the fields to track and update are also
configurable with a single file.
