I have written applications in WebObjects that read / authentication
from Open Directory. You use Java's JNDI to do so.
Below is a tutorial on how to use JNDI with LDAP (Basically Open
directory is LDAP)
http://java.sun.com/products/jndi/tutorial/ldap/
There is a part of the tutorial that explains how to create LDAP records
using JNDI. You just need to make sure that the Open Directory records
you create contain all the necessary LDAP objects.
You will also need to contend with is Kerberos and setting the users
password. Also for legacy purposes Open Directory contains a Hashed
password for 10.1 systems. If you need any non Kerberos systems to
authenticate using Open Directory you will need to write something to
DES hash a password in Apple's format.
I hope this at least give you a place to start. What you want to
accomplish is totally doable!
You may also want to look at using Java IO to the command line and use
the Open Directory / Net Info import export UNIX commands as a way to
accomplish the same thing as you would with JNDI.
Good luck!

I am trying to interface my WebObjects app with Workgroup Manager on OS
X Server 10.3.5.
Basically, I have users register on the site and choose a username and
password and I would like
to have the application add them to the User list in Workgroup Manager
with email access when
they click the register button. Can anybody help me with this ? Or
does anybody know how I would
do this ??
Thanks.
