Hi,

correct-me if I am wrong but this wiki page
(http://www.ovirt.org/DomainInfrastructure) states clearly :

>  1. Authenticating Active Directory, IPA and RHDS using either simple
>     or gssapi authentication
>  2. Querying the directory using the LDAP protocol
>  3. Auto deducing the LDAP provider type
>  4. Easily adding new LDAP provider types
>  5. Easily adding new query types
>

So what ?
