Hi,
Actually i have one confusion regarding dn of openLDAP and dn contains the attributes cn but i want to replace this attribute with my customised attribute.Please let me know whether it is possible or not. and if it is possible then what will be the attribute type and syntax for customised attribute.
The Distinguished Name, or to be more precisely, the Relative Distinguished Name may be constructed of almost any attribute type, it would not be wise to use an attribute type with binary syntax or some such though. That is, if you create a private attribute type to be used in a RDN, this attribute typ may use any appropriate syntax and appropriate matching rules. There is no strict requirement for a particular set of attribute types to be used in a RDN.
