+RFC 4524 COSINE LDAP/X.500 Schema June 2006
+
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ In the late 1980s, X.500 Directory Services were standardized by the
+ CCITT (Commite' Consultatif International de Telegraphique et
+ Telephonique), now a part of the ITU (International Telephone Union).
+ This lead to Directory Service piloting activities in the early
+ 1990s, including the COSINE (Co-operation and Open Systems
+ Interconnection in Europe) PARADISE Project pilot [COSINEpilot] in
+ Europe. Motivated by needs for large-scale directory pilots, RFC
+ 1274 was published to standardize the directory schema and naming
+ architecture for use in the COSINE and other Internet X.500 pilots
+ [RFC1274].
+
+ In the years that followed, X.500 Directory Services have evolved to
+ incorporate new capabilities and even new protocols. In particular,
+ the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) [RFC4510] was
+ introduced in the early 1990s [RFC1487], with Version 3 of LDAP
+ introduced in the late 1990s [RFC2251] and subsequently revised in
+ 2005 [RFC4510].
+
+ While much of the material in RFC 1274 has been superceded by
+ subsequently published ITU-T Recommendations and IETF RFCs, many of
+ the schema elements lack standardized schema descriptions for use in
+ modern X.500 and LDAP directory services despite the fact that these
+ schema elements are in wide use today. As the old schema
+ descriptions cannot be used without adaptation, interoperability
+ issues may arise due to lack of standardized modern schema
+ descriptions.
+
+ This document addresses these issues by offering standardized schema
+ descriptions, where needed, for widely used COSINE schema elements.
+
+1.1. Relationship to Other Documents
+
+ This document, together with [RFC4519] and [RFC4517], obsoletes RFC
+ 1274 in its entirety. [RFC4519] replaces Sections 9.3.1 (Userid) and
+ 9.3.21 (Domain Component) of RFC 1274. [RFC4517] replaces Section
+ 9.4 (Generally useful syntaxes) of RFC 1274.
+
+ This document replaces the remainder of RFC 1274. Appendix A
+ discusses changes since RFC 1274, as well as why certain schema
+ elements were not brought forward in this revision of the COSINE
+ schema. All elements not brought are to be regarded as Historic.
+
+ The description of the 'domain' object class provided in this
+ document supercedes that found in RFC 2247. That is, Section 3.4 of
+ this document replaces Section 5.2 of [RFC2247].
+
+
+
+
+Zeilenga Standards Track [Page 3]
+
+RFC 4524 COSINE LDAP/X.500 Schema June 2006
+
+
+ Some of the schema elements specified here were described in RFC 2798
+ (inetOrgPerson schema). This document supersedes these descriptions.
+ This document, together with [RFC4519], replaces Section 9.1.3 of RFC
+ 2798.
+
+1.2. Terminology and Conventions
+
+ The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
+ "SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
+ document are to be interpreted as described in BCP 14 [RFC2119].
+
+ DIT stands for Directory Information Tree.
+ DN stands for Distinguished Name.
+ DSA stands for Directory System Agent, a server.
+ DSE stands for DSA-Specific Entry.
+ DUA stands for Directory User Agent, a client.
+
+ These terms are discussed in [RFC4512].
+
+ Schema definitions are provided using LDAP description formats
+ [RFC4512]. Definitions provided here are formatted (line wrapped)
+ for readability.
+
+2. COSINE Attribute Types
+
+ This section details COSINE attribute types for use in LDAP.
+
+2.1. associatedDomain
+
+ The 'associatedDomain' attribute specifies DNS [RFC1034][RFC2181]
+ host names [RFC1123] that are associated with an object. That is,
+ values of this attribute should conform to the following ABNF:
+
+ domain = root / label *( DOT label )
+ root = SPACE
+ label = LETDIG [ *61( LETDIG / HYPHEN ) LETDIG ]
+ LETDIG = %x30-39 / %x41-5A / %x61-7A ; "0" - "9" / "A"-"Z" / "a"-"z"
+ SPACE = %x20 ; space (" ")
+ HYPHEN = %x2D ; hyphen ("-")
+ DOT = %x2E ; period (".")
+
+ For example, the entry in the DIT with a DN <DC=example,DC=com> might
+ have an associated domain of "example.com".

+ 'caseIgnoreIA5Match' and 'caseIgnoreIA5SubstringsMatch' rules are
+ described in [RFC4517].
+
+ Note that the directory will not ensure that values of this attribute
+ conform to the <domain> production provided above. It is the
+ application's responsibility to ensure that domains it stores in this
+ attribute are appropriately represented.
+
+ Also note that applications supporting Internationalized Domain Names
+ SHALL use the ToASCII method [RFC3490] to produce <label> components
+ of the <domain> production.
+
+2.2. associatedName
+
+ The 'associatedName' attribute specifies names of entries in the
+ organizational DIT associated with a DNS domain [RFC1034][RFC2181].

+
+ The DistinguishedName (1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.12) syntax and the
+ 'distinguishedNameMatch' rule are described in [RFC4517].
+
+2.3. buildingName
+
+ The 'buildingName' attribute specifies names of the buildings where
+ an organization or organizational unit is based, for example, "The
+ White House".
+
+ ( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.48 NAME 'buildingName'
+ EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch

+ 'caseIgnoreMatch' and 'caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch' rules are described
+ in [RFC4517].
+
+2.4. co
+
+ The 'co' (Friendly Country Name) attribute specifies names of
+ countries in human-readable format, for example, "Germany" and
+ "Federal Republic of Germany". It is commonly used in conjunction
+ with the 'c' (Country Name) [RFC4519] attribute (whose values are
+ restricted to the two-letter codes defined in [ISO3166]).

+
+2.5. documentAuthor
+
+ The 'documentAuthor' attribute specifies the distinguished names of
+ authors (or editors) of a document. For example,
+
+ ( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.14 NAME 'documentAuthor'
+ EQUALITY distinguishedNameMatch

+ 'distinguishedNameMatch' rule are described in [RFC4517].
+
+2.6. documentIdentifier
+
+ The 'documentIdentifier' attribute specifies unique identifiers for a
+ document. A document may be identified by more than one unique
+ identifier. For example, RFC 3383 and BCP 64 are unique identifiers
+ that (presently) refer to the same document.

+ in [RFC4517].
+
+2.8. documentPublisher
+
+ The 'documentPublisher' attribute is the persons and/or organizations
+ that published the document. Documents that are jointly published
+ have one value for each publisher.

+ attribute are appropriately represented.
+
+ Additionally, the directory will compare values per the matching
+ rules named in the above attribute type description. As these rules
+ differ from rules that normally apply to <Mailbox> comparisons,
+ operational issues may arise. For example, the assertion
+ (mail=joe@example.com) will match "JOE@example.com" even though the
+ <local-parts> differ. Also, where a user has two <Mailbox>es whose
+ addresses differ only by case of the <local-part>, both cannot be
+ listed as values of the user's mail attribute (as they are considered

+
+4. Security Considerations
+
+ General LDAP security considerations [RFC4510] are applicable to the
+ use of this schema. Additional considerations are noted above where
+ appropriate.
+
+
+
+Zeilenga Standards Track [Page 18]
+
+RFC 4524 COSINE LDAP/X.500 Schema June 2006
+
+
+ Directories administrators should ensure that access to sensitive
+ information be restricted to authorized entities and that appropriate
+ data security services, including data integrity and data
+ confidentiality, are used to protect against eavesdropping.
+
+ Simple authentication (e.g., plain text passwords) mechanisms should
+ only be used when adequate data security services are in place. LDAP
+ offers reasonably strong authentication and data security services
+ [RFC4513].
+
+5. IANA Considerations
+
+ The Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA) has updated the LDAP
+ descriptors registry [RFC4520] as indicated in the following
+ template:
+
+ Subject: Request for LDAP Descriptor Registration Update

+RFC 4524 COSINE LDAP/X.500 Schema June 2006
+
+
+Appendix A. Changes since RFC 1274
+
+ This document represents a substantial rewrite of RFC 1274. The
+ following sections summarize the substantive changes.
+
+A.1. LDAP Short Names
+
+ A number of COSINE attribute types have short names in LDAP.
+
+ X.500 Name LDAP Short Name
+ ------------- ---------------
+ domainComponent dc
+ favoriteDrink drink
+ friendCountryName co
+ homeTelephoneNumber homePhone
+ mobileTelephoneNumber mobile
+ pagerTelephoneNumber pager
+ rfc822Mailbox mail
+ userid uid
+
+ While the LDAP short names are generally used in LDAP, some
+ implementations may (for legacy reasons [RFC3494]) recognize the
+ attribute type by its X.500 name. Hence, the X.500 names have been
+ reserved solely for this purpose.
+
+ Note: 'uid' and 'dc' are described in [RFC4519].
+
+A.2. pilotObject
+
+ The 'pilotObject' object class was not brought forward as its
+ function is largely replaced by operational attributes introduced in
+ X.500(93) [X.501] and version 3 of LDAP [RFC4512]. For instance, the
+ function of the 'lastModifiedBy' and 'lastModifiedTime' attribute
+ types is now served by the 'creatorsName', 'createTimestamp',
+ 'modifiersName', and 'modifyTimestamp' operational attributes
+ [RFC4512].
+
+A.3. pilotPerson
+
+ The 'pilotPerson' object class was not brought forward as its
+ function is largely replaced by the 'organizationalPerson' [RFC4512]
+ object class and its subclasses, such as 'inetOrgPerson' [RFC2798].
+
+ Most of the related attribute types (e.g., 'mail', 'manager') were
+ brought forward as they are used in other object classes.

+
+
+A.4. dNSDomain
+
+ The 'dNSDomain' object class and related attribute types were not
+ brought forward as its use is primarily experimental [RFC1279].
+
+A.5. pilotDSA and qualityLabelledData
+
+ The 'pilotDSA' and 'qualityLabelledData' object classes, as well as
+ related attribute types, were not brought forward as its use is
+ primarily experimental [QoS].
+
+A.6. Attribute Syntaxes
+
+ RFC 1274 defined and used caseIgnoreIA5StringSyntax attribute syntax.
+ This has been replaced with the IA5String syntax and appropriate
+ matching rules in 'mail' and 'associatedDomain'.
+
+ RFC 1274 restricted 'mail' to have non-zero length values. This
+ restriction is not reflected in the IA5String syntax used in the
+ definitions provided in this specification. However, as values are
+ to conform to the <Mailbox> production, the 'mail' should not contain
+ zero-length values. Unfortunately, the directory service will not
+ enforce this restriction.
+
+Appendix B. Changes since RFC 2247
+
+ The 'domainNameForm' name form was not brought forward as
+ specification of name forms used in LDAP is left to a future
+ specification.
