my question is regarding updated Cosine schema [RFC 4524] which has been accepted in March 1991 by IANA. This obsoletes previous Cosine schema [RFC 1274]. OpenLDAP has support for RFC 4524, yet it comes with pre-defined older RFC 1274. So, I'm wondering, is there reason for keep using RFC 1274, or is it safe to define/create new Cosine schema by RFC 4524? Note: I've found ldif file which corresponds with RFC 4524, but no schema file. But I think [believe] it won't be that hard to define schema by published RFC. But, if somebody knows where I can get those files for OpenLDAP, I would be really happy.
Could you please elaborate on which specific problems you see with cosine.schema shipped with OpenLDAP (despite the outdated comment and DESC texts)?
Ciao, Michael.
Hello,
I've re-checked RFC again, and you are correct. Judging by Appendix A, I probably got confused by X.500 names and LDAPs shortened ones, as I'm looking for solution/ideas in both [LDAP/X.500 RFCs]. I find no excuse resp. I can't explain my confusion. It felt like some objects/attributes are missing resp. some new attributes were added by RFC 4524, but I see I was wrong. I can say many excuses, but it won't change the fact-
I'm sorry for [pointless] question then.
Have a nice day and thanks for clarification [=making me realize], Zdenek
