LDAP session backend
====================
An Apache session module was created by LL::NG team to store sessions in
an LDAP directory.
.. attention::
This module is not part of LL::NG distribution, and can
be found on CPAN:
`Apache::Session::LDAP <http://search.cpan.org/dist/Apache-Session-LDAP/>`__.
.. tip::
This module is also available on
`GitHub <https://github.com/coudot/apache-session-ldap>`__.
Sessions will be stored as LDAP entries, like this:
::
dn: cn=6fb7c4a170a04668771f03b0a4747f46,ou=sessions,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: applicationProcess
cn: 6fb7c4a170a04668771f03b0a4747f46
description: [Base64 serialized data]

(`Apache::Session::LDAP <http://search.cpan.org/dist/Apache-Session-LDAP/>`__)

You can also use different user/password for your servers by overriding
parameters ``globalStorage`` and ``globalStorageOptions`` in
lemonldap-ng.ini file.
