[ale] Server Record Keeping

[Jeff Hubbs]

This might seem like jumping into a spinning propeller at first, but 
OpenLDAP can do this - the reason for doing it is that you can integrate 
your user accounts in with all that (i.e., restrict account X to just W, 
Y, and Z servers).  You can hook your way into an OpenLDAP instance with 
Webmin or any number of other LDAP-specific frontends, or you can access 
the OpenLDAP's backend DBMS directly.
