References, etc.

Hi
I am currently in the process of implementing an LDAP tree on an
experimental basis for company personnel info. (later to be used in
conjunction with PAM).

The tree has a lot of interlocked data happening, so instead of
statically adding data in the various locations, which would include
several administrative changes to the tree with each change; i would
rather have some elements as "references" to others (much like the ones
in oracle or sql server, etc.). since there is not much documentation
going into setup details, i wanted to know one would incorporate this or

if there were any functions/utilities to accommodate this. (I also want
it to be completely "compatible with netscape" so a separate application

for i/o can't be the primary interface for data reading/writing).

Thanks alot
