Basically, General is a web based Ldap browser/editor. But its modular architecture makes it possible to exchange the Ldap part by a relational database module for example. Furthermore it is highly extensible through its component interface which enables you to add plug-ins which can manage the imap accounts of your users, or - in the future - your home directories and many more.

• Unix account management
• Unix group management
• Cyrus mail server management in combination with ldap accounts

Some basic features:

• Easy management of users, groups and devices stored in your ldap directory
• Highly configurable by editing just a few config files
