While working with OpenLDAP, I've observed something strange. I am not sure if this is the anticipated behaviour. Let us say we have two attributes 'name' and 'middleName' and the former is the superior of the latter i.e.
attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.74 NAME 'middleName' SUP name )
Now let us assume that the value of the attribute 'middleName' for a particular dn is 'Konda'. Then performing a search on the basedn with the filter "(name=Konda)" returns that particular dn. Is this a bug or anticipated behaviour?
This works as intended. If you don't want that then don't use SUP name.
Ciao, Michael.
