Re: How-to extend schema

["Kurt D. Zeilenga" <Kurt@OpenLDAP.org>]

There is nothing terribly OpenLDAP-specific about
proper LDAP/X.500 schema design.  I suggest you
read a good LDAP/X.500 reference (see the FAQ for
some suggestions) and, if you have questions in
this area, direct them to a general LDAP list
such as <ldap@umich.edu>.
