Why don't you just get a copy of some X.500 software and see for yourself
what X.500 is about.  Get a copy of the ISODE (ask Bug-ISODE@NISC.NYSER.NET
for the details).

If you want an example of a real use of X.500 to solve a real world problem
(White Pages) with an understandable explanation,

	AND IF YOU HAVE INTERNET ACCESS

then ftp to nisc.nyser.net and retrieve the file pilot/src/pilot-ps.tar.Z in
BINARY mode.  This contains several PostScript files relating to the
NYSERNet/PSI White Pages Pilot Project which has been running since July of
last year.

If you do not have Internet access, your are out of luck.  I don't have the
resources to mail copies out via e-mail or the post.
