AD LDS

New Lightweight directory services for Windows.

Microsoft has released AD LDS, a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) directory service that provides flexible support for directory-enabled applications, without the dependencies that are required for Active Directory Domain Services (AD DS).

AD LDS provides much of the same functionality as AD DS, but it does not require the deployment of domains or domain controllers. In environments where AD DS exists, AD LDS can use AD DS for the authentication of Windows security principals. Multiple instances of AD LDS can run concurrently on a single computer, and have an independently managed schema for each AD LDS instance.

You can download AD LDS from the Microsoft download site.

Should really point out that this is the Windows 7 AD LDS download. AD LDS and its predecessor ADAM have both been available for a long time. System Requirements Supported Operating Systems: Windows 7 Enterprise; Windows 7 Professional; Windows 7 Ultimate
