filter on DN attributes
Hello,
I am a currently working on a DSML project with CASTOR libraries.
(http://www.castor.org).
I have a question about perorming a search with filter on DN
attributes : (On OpenLdap servers)
I have an object which has a DN attribute.
defined in the schema as
attributetype (1.3.6.1.4.1.18 NAME 'link'
EQUALITY distinguishedNameMatch
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.12)
(I currently run OpenLdap Server with this schema).
Now I tried to search with a filter and find objects
which has a specified value for this attribute , but I failed.
If I declare a filter like this :
(&(objectclass=*)(link=*))
I do get all the proper object , but
if want to make more exact searches I fail.
For example ,
(&(objectclass=*)(link=cn*))
or
(&(objectclass=*)(link=cn=john,ou=people,o=rootldap))
(I do have objects where the "link" has such values like
cn=xxx,ou=people,o=rootldap
I tried performing this search from the Netscape JAVA API
and also from the command line utilities and failed in
both cases.
Could it be that OpenLdap server does not support this
kind of querries ?
I previously so 2 or 3 posting in OpenLDAP.ORG newgroups
which can be related to this issue but with no help.
(I also examined the rfcs : RFC 2253 ,
UTF-8 String Representation of Distinguished Names,
has some information on that but it did not solved the problem.
I understand that maybe there should be perhaps some substitution
for the query string when
using a DN ).
regards,
rami
