An experimental directory server was set up back in June 1997. The system it ran on, however, really was not up to the job and response times were often very poor. What's new includes The version of the LDAP daemon. The current version will interwork with many more clients than its predecessor.
Undergraduates are now in the directory.
The directory is kept up to date. There are entries in the directory for all staff, postgraduates and undergraduates. It is hoped that telephone data will be integrated in the not too distant future. Personal WWW Home Page URLs will be included at some point. There are no restrictions on who may read data from the directory.
