Re: Do you have suggestions for LDAP book ?

[Bhishm Sharma <praan_nath@yahoo.com>]

Hey,

Is your book also freely available online for
newcomers (say first 10 or 20) or its just a promotion
to let every newcomer know that here is a new book.

I hope atleast you can send crux or few sample
chapters(not only 1 please) to those who are intersted
in having a glimpse of how simple and useful it is, to
start.

regards,
Bhishm
