The highlight of the Monday sessions (for me) would have to be either the "Directory Server 6 - Tips, Tricks and Secrets" or the OpenPTK session. The DS6 session talked about some add-on utilities to help you get stats from your LDAP server so you know what to tune. The db_stat utility from the original sleepycat bits was one of the tools they used. It's not shipped with the DSEE and not supported by Sun. In fact, If the db_stat version is not the exact version that the underlying sleepycat db is, you can corrupt your data. So it's not a tool to play with unless you really know what you are doing... In fact, forget everything I just told you...
OpenPTK is the Open Provisioning Toolkit. It's a kit that was assembled by some rockstars from the field(Sigle,Fehrman,Harcey). Terry Sigle drove the effort of getting it officially released as an open source project. As of (about) 5:35pm PST, OpenPTK is now officially released. In a nutshell, OpenPTK allows you to do remote provisioning operations, utilizing SPML, without having to know SPML. There are command line interfaces, so provisioning events can be scripted, and there is a webservices interface for "SOAfied" environments to make provisioning calls.
(Pics, from today either didn't come out well, or were just plain boring... Will try to take some good ones today)
