V4 Name Server

Task

Investigate a network client API for data and name resolution.

Name Server

Hoping to use something existing. Get OpenLDAP and check the following:

• Can it be used to store record names, server addresses, maybe more ('primary' server, fields, ...)?

 Try a simple setup, use the command-line ldapsearch to retrieve data.

• Does it allow for redundant servers, automatically syncing?
• How to best interface it (API)?

Data

Is the low-level V4 CA client API all that's needed? Or is a wrapper needed that e.g. holds the data in a container?

• Waiting for 'caget' example code.
