+Title: LUMA, a very nice LDAP GUI
+Tags: english, debian, debian edu, nuug, ldap
+Date: 2010-06-28 00:30
+
+<p>The last few days I have been looking into the status of the LDAP
+directory in Debian Edu, and in the process I started to miss a GUI
+tool to browse the LDAP object trees.  The only one I was able to find
+in Debian/Squeeze and Lenny was
+<a href="http://luma.sourceforge.net/">LUMA</a>, which has proved to
+be a great tool to get a overview of the current LDAP directory
+populated by default in Skolelinux.  Thanks to it, I have been able to
+find empty and obsolete subtrees, misplaced objects and duplicate
+objects.  It will be installed by default in Debian/Squeeze.  If you
+are working with LDAP, give it a go. :)</p>
+
+<p>Did notice one problem with it I have not had time to report to the
+BTS yet.  There is no .desktop file in the package, so the tool do not
+show up in the Gnome and KDE menus, but only deep down in in the
+Debian submenu in KDE.  I hope that can be fixed before Squeeze is
+released.</p>
+
+<p>If you have tips on other GUI tools for LDAP that might be useful
+in Debian Edu, please contact us on debian-edu@lists.debian.org.</p>
