Hi,
I was wondering if openLDAP has any connectors to synchronize the users, groups in the directory to an external database such as mysql.
Thank you. _________________________________________________________________

There are a couple choices for connectors to MySQL: back-sql and back-ndb. They both access the database in realtime, so "synchronization" isn't part of the picture.

just my 2c, you can also write a script / program to convert and then push to an ldap schema. we did this in php at my last company and it worked out quite well, plus it was pretty easy to implement.

Attached, please find an overlay I wrote that synchronises users and organizations to an external postgresql database. Perhaps you can use it as a starting point for whatever you need.
This is "modrelay version 0.2". I posted an earlier version here:
