http://larsdigita.com/tmp/adldap.tgzDescription: An AOLserver/ORACLE based Tcl web application that provides
users with forums and other web based applications.
The ArsDigita Community System (ACS) is an database backed web
collaboration tool originally written for Oracle and also ported
to InterBase DBMS, release 4.0, available on Linux at no charge.
ACS operates on top of AOLServer, a free HTTP server.
Now includes the source for the Oracle driver as well as the
nscache, nsrewrite, and nssha1 modules.
Source is available and binaries for Redhat Linux and Solaris
are available. A Windows version is being developed.
Information regarding exporting of Tcl wrappers for OpenLDAP compliant
libraries is available on arsdigita, with more info and code on
larsdigita.
The Ybos web page has new ArsDigita modules for group scoping,
event planning and content management.
A version based on PostgreSQL is available at benadida.
ArsDigita has their own release of AOLserver (v3.2+ad10),
as well as Oracle drivers, etc. See the acs-repository URL.
Recently ArsDigita moved to a Java based distribution. However, the
OpenACS project took over the Tcl based software from what
I understand. OpenACS is at version 3.2.5 with a version 4 b2 in
testing.
