So, why is the Perl Interface so cool? Well, a while ago we asked about
using the Perl interface for use with an LDAP[?] Configuration Backend , but at that time

I thought it would be very handy (at least to
Suretec ) to have

OpenLDAP Directory, so I
raised this question .
Imagine all the Amanda clients pulling in config data from one source. Nice.
Seems the answer is
not yet . Oh well.
