Server data Question
I am trying to generate some test data which is forcing
me to learn more about how the data is organized in the
ldbm backend of sldap. I am using the test data to test
my LDAP client code. The function ldbm_back_add() always
expects an entry object to exist which matches the parent
RDN of the person object entry being added.
Some commercial servers use the mail attribute in the
entry DN. I doubt that they have an entry for each email
address.
How can I make the DN whatever I want with out also having
to also have an object entry with a DN that matches the
parent RDN of every new person entry.
Example of an LDIF entry retrieved from a popular commercial
LDAP server.
dn: cn="JR Heisey",mail=jr.heisey@mediagate.com,c=US,o=me
diagate.com
mail: jr.heisey@mediagate.com
cn: JR Heisey
o: mediagate.com
givenName: JR
surname: Heisey
How can I avoid also having to create object entries with
DNs of:
mail=jr.heisey@mediagate.com,c=US,o=mediagate.com
c=US,o=mediagate.com
o=mediagate.com
Perhaps I need to use a different server.
Thanks,
