51 major restrictions as compared to normal LDAP:
53 - no async calls.
54 - each record must have a unique key field
55 - the key must be representable as a NULL terminated C string and may not
56 contain a comma or braces
58 major restrictions as compared to tdb:
60 - no explicit locking calls
61 UPDATE: we have transactions now, better than locking --SSS.
