*What is an Instance of AD LDS?
*Active directory lightweight Directory services (Formerly known as ADAM) - Active Directory Applications Mode) is a server role that provides LDAP services.
*You'll only need it if you're installing Applications, like network-aware commercial apps and open sources web apps that relly on LDAP to authenticate users and provide permissions to aspects of the specific application.
*It usually lives on a server separate from your AD DS (Sometimes the same server as your Application), and can also be installed on Server Core!
What is an Instance of AD LDS?
Think of it as a Copy in RAM
* An "Instance" of LDS is just a running copy of AD LDS that uses a particular "Store" of data.
* You can have multiple instances of LDS running on the same AD LDS Server, all with their own unique Schema definations.
* You could have multiple instances of LDS running for multiple applications, all instances being customized for the unique application requirements.
* Management Tools for LDS:
- ADSI Edit
- Event Viewer
- LDP.exe
- NTDSUTIL - Command Line
- LDIFDE - Command Line
- DSDBUTIL - Command Line
- DSACLS - Command Line
