Is there a sample AD & LDAP server for practice? [closed]

I am trying to study the connection method to LDAP and AD, but don't have a working AD.

I do have a full working Window 2008 Server.

Is there a sample AD & LDAP server I could use for practice?


yes you can try it for practice

or you can use an open-source alternative such as:

http://directory.apache.org/


These guys have set up a public, read-only LDAP for testing purposes:
