<snip> We are considering making changes so that an IOC uploads its record list to an LDAP server when its databases are loaded. Among other benefits this would allow for wildcard queries using open source LDAP client libraries. One of my papers at ICALEPCS 03 discusses some of the issues surrounding the use of EPICS in WAN. Just two comments. 1) Why we need to restrict ourselfe to LDAP? I agree that LDAP is a good choice at the moment, but we don't know 5 years later. And EPICS core life will be much longer than that. At least, we have to have a layer to separate LDAP dependent part from other. 2) This functionality should be optional. User of EPICS should be able to start a simple thing in a simple way. Noboru
