Short for Lightweight
Directory Access Protocol, a set of protocols for
accessing information directories. LDAP is based on the standards contained
within the X.500 standard, but is significantly simpler. And unlike X.500, LDAP
supports TCP/IP, which is necessary for any type of Internet access. Because
it’s a simpler version of X.500, LDAP is sometimes called X.500-lite.
