<p>Since
<a href="http://www.hungry.com/~pere/blog/LUMA__a_very_nice_LDAP_GUI.html">my
last post</a> about available LDAP tools in Debian, I was told about a
LDAP GUI that is even better than luma.  The java application
<a href="http://jxplorer.org/">jXplorer</a> is claimed to be capable of
moving LDAP objects and subtrees using drag-and-drop, and can
authenticate using Kerberos.  I have only tested the Kerberos
authentication, but do not have a LDAP setup allowing me to rewrite
LDAP with my test user yet.  It is
<a href="http://packages.qa.debian.org/j/jxplorer.html">available in
Debian</a> testing and unstable at the moment.  The only problem I
have with it is how it handle errors.  If something go wrong, its
non-intuitive behaviour require me to go through some query work list
and remove the failing query.  Nothing big, but very annoying.</p>
