It is not an official artifact of Apache Directory yet. Although if some people are interested, it soon can be. In the meantime, there are no official releases etc.

When Tomcat starts up, ApacheDS starts as well and You can use Studio to edit your users and groups after Tomcat startup; the embedded ApacheDS opens an LDAP port at 10389.I will continue testing and will provide some documentation on the wiki later on. Some features like configuration (LDAP port, filter expressions for searches, ...) are still missing, but I think it looks quite promising.which defaults to 10389. You can use any LDAP client to connect to the embedded ApacheDS. We recommend Apache Directory Studio for this tasks.
Within the realm definition in Tomcats server.xml, you can add some attributes to configure ApacheDS:
Parameter | Description | Default value |
|---|---|---|
ldapPort | the port number ApacheDS will listen to via LDAP | 10389 |
workingDirectory | the working directory where ApacheDS stores its data | catalina.home/apacheDsWorkingDir |
