+
+Abstract
+
+ This document is a revision to [RFC 1632]: A Revised Catalog of
+ Available X.500 Implementations and is based on the results of data
+ collection via a WWW home page that enabled implementors to submit
+ new or updated descriptions of currently available implementations of
+ X.500, including commercial products and openly available offerings.
+ [RFC 1632] is a revision of [RFC 1292]. We contacted each
+ contributor to [RFC 1632] to request an update and published the URL
+ of the WWW home page survey template in several mailing lists to
+ encourage the submission of new product descriptions.
+
+ This document contains detailed description of 31 X.500
+ implementations - DSAs, DUAs, and DUA interfaces.

+1. Introduction
+
+ This document catalogs currently available implementations of X.500,
+ including commercial products and openly available offerings. For
+ the purposes of this survey, we classify X.500 products as,
+
+ DSA
+
+ A DSA is an OSI application process that provides the Directory
+ functionality,
+
+ DUA
+
+ A DUA is an OSI application process that represents a user in
+ accessing the Directory and uses the DAP to communicate with a
+ DSA, and
+
+ DUA Interface
+
+ A DUA Interface is an application process that represents a
+ user in accessing the Directory using either DAP but supporting
+ only a subset of the DAP functionality or a protocol different
+ from DAP to communicate with a DSA or DUA.
+
+ Section 2 of this document contains a listing of implementations
+ cross referenced by keyword. This list should aid in identifying
+ implementations that meet your criteria.
+
+ To compile this catalog, the IDS Working Group solicited input from
+ the X.500 community by publishing a URL for a set of on-line
+ description forms deployed on the WWW as a home page on an InterNIC
+ server. This URL

+RFC 2116 X.500 Implementations Catalog-96 April 1997
+
+
+ (http://www.internic.net/projects/x500catalog/catalogtop.html) was
+ advertised on the following directory-related mailing lists:
+ iso@nic.ddn.mil, isode@nic.ddn.mil, osi-ds@cs.ucl.ac.uk,
+ ids@merit.edu, ietf-asid@umich.edu, mhs-ds@mercury.udev.cdc.com,
+ nadf-l@ema.org, and dssig@nist.gov.
+
+ Readers are encouraged to submit comments regarding both the forms
+ and content of this memo. New submissions are welcome. Please
+ direct input to the Integrated Directory Services (IDS) Working Group
+ (ietf-ids@umich.edu) or to the authors. IDS will produce new
+ versions of this document when a significant number of substantive
+ comments have been received or when significant updates and/or
+ modifications to X.500-related standards documents have been
+ ratified. This will be determined by the IDS chairpersons.
+
+1.1 Purpose
+
+ The Internet has experienced a steady growth in X.500 piloting
+ activities. This document hopes to provide an easily accessible
+ source of information on X.500 implementations for those who wish to
+ consider X.500 technology for deploying a Directory service.
+
+1.2 Scope
+
+ This document contains descriptions of both free and commercial X.500
+ implementations. It does not provide instructions on how to install,
+ run, or manage these implementations. The descriptions and indices
+ are provided to make the readers aware of available options and thus
+ enable more informed choices.
+
+1.3 Disclaimer
+
+ Implementation descriptions were written by implementors and vendors,
+ and not by the editors. We worked with the description authors to
+ ensure uniformity and readability, but cannot guarantee the accuracy
+ or completeness of the descriptions, nor the stability of the
+ implementations.

+1.4 Overview
+
+ Section 1 contains introductory information.
+
+ Section 2 contains a list of keywords, their definitions, a cross
+ reference of the X.500 implementations by these keywords and a table
+ containing implementor name, implementor abreviation, and the page of
+ this document on which the description begins for a particular
+ implementor.
+
+ Section 3 contains the X.500 implementation descriptions.
+
+ Section 4 has a list of references.
+
+ Section 6 lists the editors' addresses.
+
+1.5 Acknowledgments
+
+ The creation of this catalog would not have been possible without the
+ efforts of the description authors and the members of the IDS Working
+ Group. Our special thanks to the editors of [RFC 1632], Linda
+ Millington and Sri Sataluri who graciously contributed the nroff
+ source file used to structure their version of the catalog.
+
+2. Keywords
+
+ Keywords are abbreviated attributes of the X.500 implementations.
+ The list of keywords defined below was derived from the
+ implementation descriptions themselves. Implementations were indexed
+ by a keyword either as a result of: (1) explicit, not implied,
+ reference to a particular capability in the implementation
+ description text, or (2) input from the implementation description
+ author(s).
+
+2.1 Keyword Definitions
+
+ This section contains keyword definitions. They have been organized
+ and grouped by functional category. The definitions are ordered first
+ alphabetically by keyword category, and second alphabetically by
+ implementation name within keyword category.

+NAME
+
+ A-Window-To-Directory (AWTD)
+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ A-Window-To-Directory is a simple-to-use DUA interface available on
+ PC that provides access to the X.500 Directory Services. The
+ available operations are: bind (authenticated or anonymous), read,
+ list, compare, modify, modifyRDN, search, add, remove and unbind. It
+ is designed to be used with the Bull X500-DUA product and for that
+ reason is able to handle any of the defined schema. The new acronyms,
+ objects and attributes are automatically loaded without any
+ customisation. The interface of the application may be personalized
+ in several ways, through Local Preferences stored on the PC and
+ through User Settings stored on the UNIX machine that runs the Bull
+ X500-DUA product.
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1988 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ A-Window-To-Directory offers all the services described in the 88
+ CCITT X.500 standard.

+ The X.500 Enabler product allows an LDAP-only directory server to be
+ integrated into X.500 environments, by transparently converting X.500
+ DAP and DSP requests into LDAP requests.
+
+ The initial release scheduled for 4Q96 will allow for connections
+ from X.500-capable clients and servers to an LDAP-capable server, and
+ will support the following features:
+
+ * LDAP version 2, as defined in RFC 1777,
+
+ * all attributes defined for LDAPv2, with the exception of
+ certificates and revocation lists,
+
+ * X.500(1988) DAP and DSP protocols over TCP/IP (using RFC
+ 1006),
+
+ * the following operations: Bind (with none or simple
+ credentials), Read, Compare, List, Search, Abandon, AddEntry,
+ ModifyEntry, RemoveEntry and ModifyRDN,
+
+ * the X.500(1993) critical extensions field, to aid in
+ deployments incorporating 1993 DSAs.
+
+ This release will be available for Solaris 2.5 (SPARC and Intel) and
+ Windows NT 4.0 Server (Intel).
+
+ The product is expected to enter a public beta test period in
+ September 1996. Beta test evaluation copies will be free (limited to
+ two copies per site) but will be set to expire in December 1996.
+
+ Released versions of X.500 Enabler will be licensed per server, and
+ will be distributed over the Internet.
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1988 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ The X.500 enabler accepts DAP and DSP connections.
+
+ It supports Bind (with none or simple credentials), Read, Compare,
+ List, Search, Abandon, AddEntry, ModifyEntry, RemoveEntry and
+ ModifyRDN.

+
+
+ It supports the attributes and object classes defined in X.520 and
+ X.521.
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1993 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ The X.500 Enabler will accept connections from X.500(1993) DUAs and
+ DSAs.
+
+ It supports the X.511(1993) critical extension mechanism.
+
+ Non-critical protocol fields which do not map onto LDAPv2 are
+ ignored.
+
+ Attribute and object classes from X.520(1993) and X.521(1993) are
+ supported, including collective. Operational attributes from X.501
+ are supported, with the exception of subschema.
+
+ As LDAPv3-based servers become available, it is expected that the
+ X.500 Enabler will be upgraded to map more of the X.500(1993)
+ protocol onto LDAPv3.

+
+INTEROPERABILITY
+
+ The X.500 Enabler is being tested with public-domain X.500 and LDAP
+ clients and servers, and with the various X.500 clients and servers
+ connected to the PARADISE project, such as from the ISODE Consortium.
+
+ Critical Angle intends to do interoperability testing with commercial
+ LDAP-only servers as they become available.
+
+PILOT CONNECTIVITY
+
+ This product will be used to connect LDAP-only servers, such as
+ University of Michigan's slapd, and many vendor's forthcoming
+ commercial LDAP server products, into the PARADISE project directory,
+ so that they can be accessed by LDAP and X.500 DUAs throughout the
+ project.

+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ DC X500 provides a truly scalable X.500 based enterprise directory
+ server with the necessary architectural flexibility to enable
+ integration with existing database and directory technologies.
+
+ From a pure X.500 standpoint, DC X500 provides a full function
+ state-of-the-art DSA implementation.
+
+ * Architected from scratch according to the 1993 X.500
+ standards (i.e. not a 1988 DSA with 1993 features grafted on)
+
+ * Support for all the key X.500 OSI protocols:
+
+ * Directory Access Protocol (DAP) for user access
+
+ * Directory System Protocol (DSP) for distributed DSA
+ comunications
+
+ * Directory Information Shadowing Protocol (DISP) to support
+ replication between servers to give improved performance
+ in a distributed network
+
+ * Support of the 1993 Basic Access Control and Simplified
+ Access Control models
+
+ * Support for the key Internet X.500 related standards:
+
+ * integrated Lightweight DAP (LDAP)for DUA access
+
+ * Madman MIBs for easy integration with SNMP
+
+ The DC X500 architecture is based on Data Connection's underlying
+ product architecture which has evolved since 1987 and includes:
+
+ * genuine multi-threaded implementation
+
+
+
+
+Apple & Rossen Informational [Page 42]
+
+RFC 2116 X.500 Implementations Catalog-96 April 1997
+
+
+ * true portability (the product is available on a range of
+ operating systems e.g Windows NT, AIX, HP-UX. OS/2 etc and it
+ is possible to port the core technology to any
+ hardware/software platform)
+
+ * secure service recording for operation tracking and billing
+
+ * support for system monitoring (both alarms and statistics)
+
+ Key product features include:
+
+ * Name resolution and integrated use of Search Indices based on
+ 2-3 trees leads to high performance operation evaluation
+ (subsecond response times on million entry DSAs)
+
+ * Generic schema support based on 1993 concepts that allows
+ customers to tailor the schema to meet their precise data
+ structuing requirements
+
+ * System recycle time is minimised (e.g. DC X500 can be backed
+ up while running and search indices are dynamically updated),
+ helping achieve the goal of continuous (24x7) availability
+ and high reliability.
+
+ * No artificial software constraints are imposed resulting in a
+ truly scalable product - assuming the availability of the
+ necessary hardware DC X500 can be configured to support
+ millions of entries in a single DSA.
+
+ DC X500 is certified for used within the Paradise Pilot project. The
+ product has also undergone interoperability testing at the EuroSInet
+ interoperability workshops in Europe.

+NAME
+
+ DE
+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ DE (Directory Enquiries) is intended to be a simple-to-use DUA
+ interface, suitable for the naive user, and suitable for running as a
+ public access dua. it will work on any terminal. The user is
+ presented with a series of (verbose) prompts asking for person's name
+ department organization country. There is extensive on-line help.
+ The matching algorithms are such that near matches are presented to
+ the user before less good matches.
+
+ There have been a few minor enhancements since the description in
+ [RFC 1632]. The power searching feature still sets DE apart from
+ most other DUAs - this allows a user to search for an entry even when
+ they do not know the name of the organisation in which the person
+ works - you still have to specify the country. DE also allows UFN
+ style searching. DE uses slightly different search algorithms
+ depending on whether it is accessing part of the Directory mastered
+ by a Quipu DSA - Quipu DSAs tend to use lots of replication and so
+ encourage searching. DE incorporates a QOS feature where it
+ maintains a database of past information availability and DSA
+ responsiveness. Translations exist into at least 4 different
+ languages.
+
+ DE runs over ISODE DAP and University of Michigan LDAP. There is a
+ version of DE, called DOS-DE, which has been ported to DOS, and this
+ uses LDAP.
+
+ DE was funded by the COSINE PARADISE project, and DE is used as the
+ PARADISE public access dua. You can test the software by telnet to
+ directory.ja.net and logging in as dua -- no password required.

+ This single entry covers a number of different products
+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ The Digital X.500 Directory Services product set includes a directory
+ server product and a variety directory user agents, as well as a
+ directory synchronizer utility.
+
+ The Digital X.500 Directory Server product provides a high
+ performance DSA implemented according to the 1993 edition of the
+ standard. The InfoBroker Server product extends this to provide the
+ server component for LDAP and WWW user agents. Features of these
+ servers include:
+
+ * Integrated multi-protocol support allowing concurrent DAP,
+ DSP, DISP and DOP access over OSI and TCP/IP (using [RFC
+ 1006]) protocols.
+
+ * Indexed database (DIB) to support high-performance searching
+ and sophisticated matching including approximate match.
+
+ * A DIB based on the 1993 edition Extended Information Models.
+
+ * Support for chaining and referrals in support of a
+ distributed DIB
+
+ * Support for the 1993 edition Basic Access Control scheme.
+
+ * Configurable schema based on the 1993 edition (including
+ attributes, object classes, structure rules, name forms).
+
+ * Support for 1993 edition Shadowing using the DISP and DOP
+ protocol, including both incremental and on-change features
+ for high performance.
+
+ * Remote management to control DSAs and log significant events.
+
+ * Support for the LDAP protocols using the InfoBroker Server
+ product across either TCP/IP or DECnet transport protocols.
+
+ * A Look-up Daemon that accepts requests from Web Browsers,
+ allowing access to the directory from any web browser.

+ The Synchronizer-500 is an X.500 DUA which:
+
+ * Enables bi-directional synchronization between X.500 and
+ virtually ANY other non-X.500 directory facilitating common
+ management.
+
+ * Maps incoming data into X.500 using flexible configuration
+ files
+
+ * Facilitates creation of a multivendor electronic mail
+ database, creating addresses in the appropriate syntax for

+NAME
+
+DIR.X-SYNC (tm) V2.0 Siemens Nixdorf Informationssysteme AG
+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ DIR.X-SYNC V2.0 enables the synchronization of existing e-mail
+ address directories in the X.500-based DIR.X directory service. The
+ standard DIR.X, DIR.X-SYNC and DIR.D (all available from Siemens
+ Nixdorf) products are the foundations on which the corporate
+ directory solutions can be tailored to meet the customer's needs. The
+ corporate directory then becomes the universal information system
+ within the company.
+
+ The user can access corporate directory information in different
+ ways:
+
+ * Using DIR.D, SNI's Windows client for the X.500 service, PC
+ users can gain easy access to the DIR.X server containing the
+ corporate directory data. The data found can be transferred
+ to other applications by means of DDE, drag and drop or cut
+ and paste. (See DIR.D V2.6 for further information).
+
+ * Query by mail: Authorized users can access data stored in the
+ central or distributed directory system over their own mail
+ system. DIR.X-SYNC retrieves the inquiry transmitted by mail
+ and directs it on to the X.500 service. The search results
+ are then delivered back to the user by mail. Using a WWW
+ interface based on TCL scripts
+
+ Query by mail does not require additional software on the end system.
+ Each mail system connected to the X.400 backbone (e.g. MS-Mail,
+ cc:Mail etc.) can use this function. DIR.X-SYNC currently supports
+ the address formats of the following e-mail systems:
+
+ * MAIL.X-OD V2.3
+
+ * MAIL.2000 V1.2, AKOM
+
+ * MS-Mail
+
+ * cc:Mail
+
+ * Intelligent Messaging Mail (Banyan)
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
+Apple & Rossen Informational [Page 74]
+
+RFC 2116 X.500 Implementations Catalog-96 April 1997
+
+
+ The standardized ISO-10021 interface for X.400 addresses is
+ supported, enabling need for extension. This means that any type of
+ system capable of generating this format (e.g. WordPerfect, Lotus
+ Notes) can be connected. Address acknowledgment is carried out in ISO
+ format.
+
+ Functions for the administrator:
+
+ * Export: Addresses can be exported from local directories.
+ They are delivered as mail messages in ASCII format to the
+ DIR.X-SYNC server.
+
+ * Upload: The upload server stores the exported local addresses
+ in DIR.X as globally valid X.400 addresses.
+
+ * Query by Mail: DIR.X-SYNC enables mail members to send a
+ search to the DIR.X-SYNC server by e-mail. Using this
+ function, authorized administrators of the synchronized
+ directories can acquire copies of the corporate directory
+ data.
+
+ * Administration of the DIR.X-SYNC server with an
+ administration tool which can be used via command line or a
+ command file.
+
+ Other features include:
+
+ * Replication and distribution: In addition to the central
+ solution with a single corporate directory server, DIR.X-SYNC
+ also supports replicated or distributed data storage in
+ DIR.X-SYNC server.
+
+ * Authentication/Authorization: To prevent unauthorized use of
+ the corporate directory system, the O/R addresses of the
+ authorized administrators and users are configured by the
+ DIR.X-SYNC administrator. When a query by mail or an update
+ arrives, the sender address is compared with this address.
+
+ * Logging: In the case of error, e.g. incorrect file format,
+ the sender (and the administrator configurable) are informed
+ of the fault by mail. At the same time, the error message is
+ saved in a log file for the DIR.X-SYNC administrator. In
+ addition, a "history file" enables the monitoring of the
+ uploads that have run or are currently running

+
+ Forum LOOK'UP (tm)
+
+ Telis Systemes & Communications
+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ Forum LOOK'UP (tm) is a Corporate directory solution based on the
+ X.500 recommendations. It includes:
+
+ * a Directory System Agent (DSA),
+
+ * Directory User Agents (DUAs).
+
+ * local network connections
+
+ * remote workstation access
+
+ * a WEB and videotex access
+
+ * data updating tools
+
+ * a directory editing tool
+
+ Forum LOOK'UP is a product based on PIZARRO, the research prototype
+ developed at INRIA by Christian Huitema's team, and commercialized by
+ Telis, a member of the France Telecom group.
+
+ Characteristics of the DSA are:
+
+ * The DAP and DSP protocols are provided conformant with X.500
+ (88).
+
+ * The DIB is maintained in ASN.1 encoded format in the Unix
+ file system.
+
+ * Utilities are provided to load and dump the DIB from and to
+ ASCII text files.
+
+ * As an option, an ORACLE V7 database can also be used.
+
+ * The DIT structure is held in main memory. Frequently used
+ attributes may be held in inverted tables in memory to speed
+ up searches.
+
+ * Knowledge management: knowledge on managed domains is stored
+ in Forum LOOK'UP specific attributes of the DSA entries.
+
+
+
+Apple & Rossen Informational [Page 80]
+
+RFC 2116 X.500 Implementations Catalog-96 April 1997
+
+
+ * Schema: The X.500 (88), X.400 (88) and most of the Cosine and
+ Internet Schema are supported. Object class and attribute
+ definitions are enforced. Users may define their own.
+
+ * Simple authentication is provided strong authentication and
+ signed operations have been tested operationally through
+ Telis's participation in PASSWORD, a VALUE project with aim
+ to pilot a European security infrastructure for network
+ applications.
+
+ * Access control : the DSA offers a mechanism defined by Telis
+ that is functionally equivalent to a profile of the X500 '93
+ access control mechanism. The mechanism is based on the
+ notion of administrative domains (autonomous and semi-
+ autonomous). A domain defines the user groups (categories)
+ and their access rights (consult, modify) to specified
+ attribute types. The access rights are defined in
+ prescriptive and entry ACI attributes.
+
+ * Phonetic searches : administrators may specify a language
+ (English, French, ...) for a subtree of the DIT. Approximate
+ (phonetic) searches will then be carried out in the given
+ language. The software loads a rule database to which new
+ languages and new rules may be added easily.
+
+ * Management: a Forum LOOK'UP DSA object has been defined to
+ allow operational parameters of the DSA to be managed via
+ DAP. Forum LOOK'UP conforms to X.500 (88) as specified in
+ poaragraph 9 of X.519 Administration tools are provided :
+
+ * to generate usage statistics automatically and distribute
+ these by mail to administrators
+
+ * to replicate subtrees of the DIT to other FORUM LOOK'UP
+ DSAs and automatically update shadow copies,
+
+ * to extract hardcopy listings from the database in an Excel
+ compatible format for "paper" directories, all the
+ management tasks are performed through a GUI (X/Motif).
+
+ * The GUI includes a "dashboard" for monitoring of servers and
+ the hardware they are installed on.
+
+ * The DUAs include a graphical directory browser with powerful
+ search functionality for PCs and Macintosh.

+
+ DUAs on a LAN (Novell Netware, Microsoft Lan Manager, IBM Lan Server)
+ can access the DSA without the need for IP on every Workstation. A
+ module (called SOLO server) available on Novell, OS/2 and UNIX allows
+ to have an IP or X.25 stack only on the file server. It is in charge

+ FX*500 is delivered with a schema defined to support the Common Use
+ and MHS (X.402) Schemas defined by UK GOSIP V4. The subschema for
+ FX*500 can be modified by the customer and updated dynamically.
+
+ FX*500 provides for search optimisation by supporting keyed search
+ whereby specific attributes can be identified as 'keyed' through
+ local configuration data. This optimisation avoids the need to do a
+ "brute force" search which requires a traversal of all the nodes of a
+ subtree. Approximate match search filters are also supported by using
+ a phonetic search based on the "Soundex" algorithm.
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1988 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

+NAME
+
+ ISODE Consortium Release 3.0 X.500(1993) Directory ISODE Consortium
+ Ltd.
+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ This implementation is a source release of an X.500(1993) Directory
+ System Agent (DSA). It has been designed an implemented as an X.500
+ 1993 DSA not as a 1988 DSA with '93 extensions. Emphasis has been
+ placed on providing support for a flexible information model, access
+ control, X.509 security features, and standard replication.
+
+ The 1993 DSA offers a strong technical foundation on which to build
+ an information and messaging infrastructure that relies on robust and
+ scalable directory services. The implementation of this DSA
+ incorporates the experience gained through the development, support,
+ and maintenance of the earlier QUIPU, as well as operational
+ experience and standards support.
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1988 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ The DSA is aligned to the 1988 ISO IS and the NIST OIW Directory
+ Implementors Guide Version 1. X.500(1993) features such as
+ replication, access control, as well as X.509 certification are also
+ available. Interoperability testing with other DSAs has been
+ performed.
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1993 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ Please contact the ISODE Consortium if you wish to obtain our
+ protocol information conformance statements. PICS may also be
+ available from member organizations for their binary products.

+NAME
+
+ LDAP
+
+ University of Michigan
+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ UM-LDAP is an implementation of the Lightweight Directory Access
+ Protocol. LDAP is a draft Internet standard directory service
+ protocol that runs over TCP/IP. It can be used to provide a stand-
+ alone directory service, or to provide lightweight access to the
+ X.500 directory. LDAP is defined by [RFC 1777] and [RFC 1778].
+
+ The UM-LDAP package includes the following components:
+
+ * slapd - a stand-alone LDAP directory server
+
+ * slurpd - a stand-alone LDAP replication server
+
+ * ldapd - an LDAP-to-X.500 gateway server
+
+ * centipede - an LDAP centroid generation and maintenance
+ program
+
+ * libldap - an LDAP client library
+
+ * liblber - a lightweight BER/DER encoding/decoding library
+
+ * ldif tools - data conversion tools for use with slapd
+
+ * in.xfingerd - a finger-to-LDAP gateway server
+
+ * go500 - a gopher-to-LDAP gateway server for searching
+
+ * go500gw - a gopher-to-LDAP gateway server for searching and
+ browsing
+
+ * rcpt500 - an email-to-LDAP query responder
+
+ * mail500 - an LDAP-capable mailer
+
+ * fax500 - an LDAP-capable mailer that supports remote printing
+
+ * LDAP tools - A collection of shell-based LDAP utility
+ programs

+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1988 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ The U-M LDAP distribution is a complete implementation of the LDAP
+ protocol. The LDAP protocol does not support access to all X.500
+ features and operations. The operations supported are bind, search,
+ compare, add, delete, modify, modify RDN, and abandon. Note that
+ read and list operations can be emulated using the search operation.
+ Size and time limits may be specified, as may alias dereferencing and
+ searching, but all X.500 service controls are not supported.
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1993 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ Since the LDAP protocol itself has not yet been updated to support
+ any 1993-specific X.500 features, this implementation does support
+ any 1993 features yet either.

+ maX.500 :: Macintosh DUA Interface
+
+ University of Michigan
+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ maX.500 is a Directory User Agent (client) for Apple Macintosh. It
+ is widely used within Paradise and other Internet X.500 pilots.
+ maX.500 supports searching, browsing, and modifying directory
+ entries. Display of textual information, playing of audio, and
+ viewing of both black-and-white (fax) and color (JPEG) images are
+ supported. Communication with directory servers is via the
+ Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) over TCP/IP. maX.500
+ works both with standalone LDAP directory servers (such as slapd) and
+ with X.500-backended LDAP servers (such as ldapd).
+
+ maX.500 is a native Macintosh application, and has a friendly
+ interface. It requires System Software version 6.0.5 or later and
+ Apple's MacTCP or Open Transport TCP/IP networking. The current
+ version of maX.500 is 2.0.2, although version 2.1 is in beta test.
+
+ The latest information about maX.500 can always be found on the
+ maX.500 Home Page at this URL:
+ http://www.umich.edu/~rsug/ldap/max500/
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1988 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ maX.500 works over LDAP, and is subject to LDAP's limitations. The
+ bind, search, compare, add, delete, abandon, modify, and modifyrdn
+ operations are all used by maX.500. Size and time limits may be
+ specified, as may alias dereferencing control.
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1993 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+

+
+INTERNETWORKING ENVIRONMENT
+
+ maX.500 is an LDAP client, and as such is uses TCP to communicate
+ with the LDAP server. Apple's MacTCP control panel or Open Transport
+ TCP/IP networking is required.
+
+HARDWARE PLATFORMS
+
+ maX.500 runs on Apple Macintosh Plus or later Macintosh computers,

+
+NAME
+
+ NonStop Directory Services (NSDS)
+ Tandem Computers, Inc.
+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ The Tandem NonStop Directory Services (NSDS) product provides a
+ distributed open directory service on Tandem platforms. It is an
+ industrial strength implementation incorporating the Tandem product
+ fundementals of resilience, linear extensibility, fault-tolerance, and
+ continuous availability. NSDS runs on the NonStop Kernel Guardian
+ Personality which includes support for Tandem system characteristics
+ such as data integrity, process persistence, and server classes. NSDS
+ supports access over X.25 WAN, LAN and TCP/IP networks.
+
+ NSDS is a port of OSF's DCE GDS Reference Implementation, with Tandem
+ enhancements including 1993 X.500 Simplified Access Control. Tandem
+ server class management provides fault events, tracing, accounting and
+ configuration services for NSDS. TM/MP (Transaction Management) is
+ used to protect all file operations that affect the integrity of the
+ directory entries in the DIB.
+
+ Major Features Include:
+
+ * X/Open Directory Services (XDS) API and X/Open Object
+ Management (XOM) interface in conformance with X/Open CAE
+ Specifications, and an additional Tandem extension package
+
+ * 1988 Edition X.500 Conformant DAP and DSP, capable of inter-
+ operating with 1993 Edition DUA or DSA implementations
+
+ * Simplified Access Control as specified in the 1993 edition of
+ the X.500 standard.
+
+ * Unprotected Simple Authentication (name and password in
+ clear)
+
+ * Character set support for T61 Printables, IA5 and Teletex
+ Strings
+
+ * The DSA-SC server class performs the functions of a DSA.
+ Multiple processes are used for fault tolerance and load
+ balancing.
+
+ * The DUA-ACCESS server class handles communications between
+ local applications and remote DSA's using DAP across an OSI
+ stack.
+
+
+
+Apple & Rossen Informational [Page 121]
+
+RFC 2116 X.500 Implementations Catalog-96 April 1997
+
+
+ * The DSA-ACCESS server class handles communications from
+ remote DUAs or DSAs to the DSA-SC server class using the
+ Tandem OSI stack implementation which includes [RFC 1006]
+ support for TCP/IP networks.
+
+ * The DSA-CHAIN server class handles chaining communications
+ between the DSA-SC server class and remote DSAs.
+
+ * NSDS GUI Viewer supports administration/management of an NSDS
+ DIB on a PC Windows workstation. The NSDS GUI Viewer is
+ supported by a persistent server process on the Tandem
+ NonStop Kernel. The GUI Viewer allows a directory entry and
+ a complete set of attributes and values to be inserted
+ anywhere in the directory tree (DIT), to be deleted or
+ changed, read or searched based on distinguished name
+ components, with or without wild-card.
+
+ * NSDS SCRIPTOR allows customers to explore features of the XDS
+ programmatic interface in advance of writing their XOM/XDS
+ application. NSDS SCRIPTOR is a menu-driven batch interface
+ to XDS functions.
+
+ * A BulkUnload/BulkLoad utility allows a branch of the DIB to
+ be dumped to an editable flat file and restored from that
+ file. The flat file can be modified before being bulk-loaded
+ into a DIB which may conform to a different schema
+ definition.
+
+ * Support for the LDAP protocol.
+
+ * Messaging-Based Directory Query (MDQ) provides a text-based
+ query interface to the directory from an X.400 messaging
+ system, such as Tandem OSI/MHS, via the XAPIA compliant GPI
+ interface.
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1988 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ NSDS complies with the '88 CCITT X.500 and ISO 9594 standard, and
+ part of '93 X.500 standard.
+
+ NSDS DSA and DUA are compliant with OIW Agreements, with the
+ following features yet to be implemented:
+
+ * Strong Authentication (Sections 6.6.2 and 8.4e)
+
+ * Priority Service Control (Section 7.4)

+NAME
+
+ PMDF-X500
+
+ from:
+
+ Innosoft International, Inc. 1050 East Garvey Ave. South West
+ Covina, California 91790
+
+ Phone: +1 818-919-3600 email: sales@innosoft.com
+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ PMDF-X500 is Innosoft's implementation of the X.500 standards for
+ Directory Services. PMDF-X500 is based upon the ISODE Consortium
+ code-base. The core of PMDF-X500 is the Directory System Agent (DSA)
+ server. This server provides directory information to Directory User
+ Agents (DUA) using either OSI or TCP/IP networking protocols. Since
+ PMDF-X500 is based on a widely used implementation, it interoperates
+ particularly well with a whole host of X.500-based products from other
+ sources.
+
+ In order to facilitate initial loading of directory data as well as
+ ongoing coordination with other directory services, PMDF-X500 includes
+ tools to import from and export directory information to Entry
+ Description File (EDF) files. EDF files are flat text files.
+ PMDF-X500 provides directory coordination functions using EDF files
+ for the following directories:
+
+ * X.500 DSAs supporting LDAP access
+
+ * cc:Mail
+
+ * Digital's DDS
+
+ * GroupWise
+
+ * Microsoft Mail
+
+ * PMDF generic databases
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1988 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ OSI directory services as specified in CCITT X.500 Recommendations
+ and ISO 9594 use the Directory Access Protocol (DAP) and the
+ Directory System Protocol (DSP).
+
+

+
+RFC 2116 X.500 Implementations Catalog-96 April 1997
+
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1993 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ PMDF-X500 does not yet support the 1993 changes to the X.500
+ standard. Support for the 1993 X.500 recommendations is planned for
+ a future release of PMDF-X500.
+
+CONFORMANCE WITH PROPOSED INTERNET STANDARDS
+
+ PMDF-X500 supports DAP and DSP accesses using Internet protocols as
+ specified in [RFC 1006]. In addition, the Internet community has
+ proposed two lightweight alternatives to DAP called Lightweight
+ Directory Access Protocol (LDAP), which is specified in [RFC 1777],
+ and Connectionless Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (CLDAP),
+ which is specified in [RFC 1798]. LDAP and CLDAP, which are currently
+ specified to run over TCP/IP, are much simpler protocols than DAP and
+ were designed to reduce the cost of entry associated with using X.500
+ protocols in client applications. PMDF-X500 includes both LDAP and
+ CLDAP servers.
+
+ The LDAP server accesses X.500 directory information using DAP to
+ communicate with X.500 DSAs. PMDF-X500 provides an LDAP server which
+ translates LDAP requests into DAP requests to communicate with X.500
+ DSAs. CLDAP defines a very low overhead method for accessing X.500
+ directory information. CLDAP is suitable for providing access to
+ information that does not require access controls.
+
+CONSISTENCE WITH INFORMATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RFCs
+
+ [No information provided. -- Ed.]
+
+INTEROPERABILITY
+
+ PMDF-X500 interoperates with a large number of DUAs and DSAs. This is
+ demonstated by the fact that PMDF-X500 is DSA used by several Internet
+ White Pages Project participants. PMDF-X500 DSA interoperability
+ includes at least all of the DSA that are used in the White Pages
+ Project.
+
+ PMDF-X500 is delivered with several DUAs and in addition is know to
+ support the DUAs from Unisys and Digital Equipment Corporation as well
+ as the publically available DUAs MaX500, Cello, Swix, and the NASA
+ DUA.
+
+PILOT CONNECTIVITY
+
+ PMDF-X500 is used by several sites that are participants of the
+ Internet White Pages Project include the Innosoft DSA.

+
+INTERNETWORKING ENVIRONMENT
+
+ DAP and DSP are layered on top of the OSI protocol suite. PMDF-X500
+ supports this protocol suite over multiple network transports. For a
+ pure OSI protocol stack, DECnet/OSI can be used to provide the lower
+ layers of the stack. In addition, PMDF-X500 supports running OSI upper
+ layer protocols over a TCP/IP transport in accordance with [RFC 1006].
+ It is important to note that while [RFC 1006] specifies TCP/IP as a
+ transport, all of the OSI upper layer protocols are always used with
+ DAP and DSP.

+
+ waX.500 :: Windows Access to X.500
+
+ waX.500 is a (currently 16-bit) DUA that run on Microsoft Windows
+ (3.1, Win95, & WinNT). It uses libldap.dll which uses the winsock
+ (v1.1) interface. It works on any vendors tcp/ip stack that I've
+ seen so far (some configuration may be required).
+
+ waX.500 was developed by the University of Michigan for use by its
+ faculty, staff and students. UM's online directory is an X.500
+ directory containing 50,000+ entries.

+
+NAME
+
+ X500-DS
+
+ X500-DUA
+
+ Bull S.A.
+
+ABSTRACT
+
+ X500-DS and X500-DUA are integral part of the large Bull OSI offer.
+ Although based on the DCE/GDS (Distributed Computing
+ Environment/Global Directory Service) of OSF, those two products may
+ be installed and used without the DCE environment. Some enhancements
+ have been added for the user and the management facilities. X500-DS is
+ designed to implement both the DUA and the DSA functions, whilst
+ X500-DUA only provides the DUA functions.
+
+ The X500-DUA package contains:
+
+ * The standards APIs XOM (X/Open OSI-Abstract-Data Manipulation
+ API) and XDS (X/Open Directory Service API) for the
+ development of portable applications,
+
+ * A core DUA to translate all user's requests (bind, read,
+ list, compare, modify, modifyRDN, search, add, remove, unbind
+ ...) into the DAP protocol used for communication with
+ distant DSAs,
+
+ * The OSI standard high layers (ASN.1, ROSE, ACSE, Presentation
+ and Session) for communication with the distant DSAs. The
+ interface with the low layers is XTI. [RFC 1006] is supported
+ under XTI or the OSI Session,
+
+ * A DUA Cache to improve performances when accessing remote
+ DSAs,
+
+ * A powerful management application facilitating the
+ configuration of the product and controlling the operations,
+ logs and traces,
+
+ * A user application for the manipulations of the database
+ entries,
+
+ * A generic tool to load and unload ASCII and binary files
+ in/from distributed DSAs,
+
+
+
+
+
+Apple & Rossen Informational [Page 157]
+
+RFC 2116 X.500 Implementations Catalog-96 April 1997
+
+
+ * The support of the LDAP [RFC 1777] thanks to an LDAP Server,
+
+ * A DUA Server that allows to use A-Window-To-Directory (refer
+ to this DUA product description) on a PC.
+
+ The X500-DS package contains:
+
+ * All components of the X500-DUA,
+
+ * A core DSA to process all requests received from distant DUAs
+ through DAP protocol or from distant DSAs through DSP
+ protocol,
+
+ * The support of the referral, chained and multi-casting modes
+ of operation, access control lists and management of
+ knowledge information (for distribution, shadows and copies
+ of sub-trees),
+
+ * The support of the simple authentication and of the DCE
+ authentication,
+
+ * A management application for managing the schema information
+ (creation, deletion and modification of object classes and of
+ attribute types, management of the rules of the DIT).
+
+ * A C-ISAM database that is specially designed for high
+ performances: e.g. less than 10 ms to read an entry on an
+ Escala at the XOM/XDS interface.
+
+ These two products are easely installed, configured and administered
+ thanks to the System Management Interface Tool (SMIT) screens of AIX.
+
+COMPLIANCE with X.500-1988 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)
+
+ Compliant with EWOS and OIW Agreements
+
+ Consists of both DUA and DSA implementation according to the '88
+ CCITT X.500 and ISO 9594 standard. The X/Open standard XDS and XOM
+ interface libraries are also provided. When the product is installed
+ with the DCE environment, XDS and XOM interfaces are also used to
+ access DCE/CDS (Local Cell Directory Service) transparently. A GDA
+ (Global Directory Agent) serves then as the gateway between the DCE
+ CDS and GDS.
