Well, I have to admit, after reviewing the products, I went with a custom
solution where I built an application to track the records through a web
interface and created ordinary plain text records for BIND from there.  My
primary worry was that these products constrain you to the maximum speed
and reliability of your LDAP server - of course, that takes a lot, but
there's something to be said for the appeal of simple text files that can
be easily backed up or replaced.
