mirror entries with rewrite?
by Christian Bösch 01 Apr '15

Hi, I want to mirror entries from a subtree to another virtual tree. I tried with rwm-rewrite which works for rewriting but I want to keep the real entries. Is therefor rwm-rewrite the wrong approach or is that possible? Thanks in advance, Chris

Sorting the NAME Attribute
by Tim Gustafson 31 Mar '15

In the following post: http://www.openldap.org/cgi-bin/wilma_hiliter/openldap-technical/201001/msg… Quanah said: > However, I will note, the definitions of these attributes are RFC > defined. They have no ORDERING rule on purpose. I was not able to find what that purpose was. Does anyone have any idea why it was decided that something as critical as "name" attributes shouldn't have an ORDERING rule? In my case, I have users who have a lower-case first-letter in their last name, which makes them appear at the bottom of all lists of people when sorted on the LDAP server. Needless to say, this makes them unhappy. For most of my purposes, I simply sort the data in my code once it is retrieved from the LDAP server, but in some cases I don't have control over the software being used and therefore can't change it, and in other cases this is terribly inefficient or impractical. Other than "because the RFC says so", what's the reasoning behind not defining an ORDERING rule for "name" attributes", preferably one that is case-insensitive? Could it at least be made a build option to enable or disable an ORDERING rule on at least that attribute (or perhaps in a more general configurable way for other attributes as well), even if it's not truly RFC-compliant? -- Tim Gustafson tjg(a)ucsc.edu 831-459-5354 Baskin Engineering, Room 313A
