+ The LDAP Data Interchange Format (LDIF) - Technical Specification
+
+Status of this Memo
+
+ This document specifies an Internet standards track protocol for the
+ Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions for
+ improvements. Please refer to the current edition of the "Internet
+ Official Protocol Standards" (STD 1) for the standardization state
+ and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.

+
+Abstract
+
+ This document describes a file format suitable for describing
+ directory information or modifications made to directory information.
+ The file format, known as LDIF, for LDAP Data Interchange Format, is
+ typically used to import and export directory information between
+ LDAP-based directory servers, or to describe a set of changes which
+ are to be applied to a directory.
+
+Background and Intended Usage
+
+ There are a number of situations where a common interchange format is
+ desirable. For example, one might wish to export a copy of the
+ contents of a directory server to a file, move that file to a
+ different machine, and import the contents into a second directory
+ server.
+
+ Additionally, by using a well-defined interchange format, development
+ of data import tools from legacy systems is facilitated. A fairly
+ simple set of tools written in awk or perl can, for example, convert
+ a database of personnel information into an LDIF file. This file can
+ then be imported into a directory server, regardless of the internal
+ database representation the target directory server uses.
+
+ The LDIF format was originally developed and used in the University
+ of Michigan LDAP implementation. The first use of LDIF was in
+ describing directory entries. Later, the format was expanded to
+ allow representation of changes to directory entries.

+
+
+ Relationship to the application/directory MIME content-type:
+
+ The application/directory MIME content-type [1] is a general
+ framework and format for conveying directory information, and is
+ independent of any particular directory service. The LDIF format is
+ a simpler format which is perhaps easier to create, and may also be
+ used, as noted, to describe a set of changes to be applied to a
+ directory.
+
+ The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "MAY", "SHOULD", and "SHOULD NOT"
+ used in this document are to be interpreted as described in [7].
+
+Definition of the LDAP Data Interchange Format
+
+ The LDIF format is used to convey directory information, or a
+ description of a set of changes made to directory entries. An LDIF
+ file consists of a series of records separated by line separators. A
+ record consists of a sequence of lines describing a directory entry,
+ or a sequence of lines describing a set of changes to a directory
+ entry. An LDIF file specifies a set of directory entries, or a set
+ of changes to be applied to directory entries, but not both.
+
+ There is a one-to-one correlation between LDAP operations that modify
+ the directory (add, delete, modify, and modrdn), and the types of
+ changerecords described below ("add", "delete", "modify", and
+ "modrdn" or "moddn"). This correspondence is intentional, and
+ permits a straightforward translation from LDIF changerecords to
+ protocol operations.
+
+Formal Syntax Definition of LDIF
+
+ The following definition uses the augmented Backus-Naur Form
+ specified in RFC 2234 [2].
+

+
+ Notes on LDIF Syntax
+
+ 1) For the LDIF format described in this document, the version
+ number MUST be "1". If the version number is absent,
+ implementations MAY choose to interpret the contents as an
+ older LDIF file format, supported by the University of
+ Michigan ldap-3.3 implementation [8].
+
+
+
+Good Standards Track [Page 5]
+
+RFC 2849 LDAP Data Interchange Format June 2000
+
+
+ 2) Any non-empty line, including comment lines, in an LDIF file
+ MAY be folded by inserting a line separator (SEP) and a SPACE.
+ Folding MUST NOT occur before the first character of the line.
+ In other words, folding a line into two lines, the first of
+ which is empty, is not permitted. Any line that begins with a
+ single space MUST be treated as a continuation of the previous
+ (non-empty) line. When joining folded lines, exactly one space
+ character at the beginning of each continued line must be
+ discarded. Implementations SHOULD NOT fold lines in the middle
+ of a multi-byte UTF-8 character.
+
+ 3) Any line that begins with a pound-sign ("#", ASCII 35) is a
+ comment line, and MUST be ignored when parsing an LDIF file.
+
+ 4) Any dn or rdn that contains characters other than those
+ defined as "SAFE-UTF8-CHAR", or begins with a character other
+ than those defined as "SAFE-INIT-UTF8-CHAR", above, MUST be
+ base-64 encoded. Other values MAY be base-64 encoded. Any
+ value that contains characters other than those defined as
+ "SAFE-CHAR", or begins with a character other than those
+ defined as "SAFE-INIT-CHAR", above, MUST be base-64 encoded.
+ Other values MAY be base-64 encoded.
+
+ 5) When a zero-length attribute value is to be included directly
+ in an LDIF file, it MUST be represented as
+ AttributeDescription ":" FILL SEP. For example, "seeAlso:"
+ followed by a newline represents a zero-length "seeAlso"
+ attribute value. It is also permissible for the value
+ referred to by a URL to be of zero length.
+
+ 6) When a URL is specified in an attrval-spec, the following
+ conventions apply:
+
+ a) Implementations SHOULD support the file:// URL format. The
+ contents of the referenced file are to be included verbatim
+ in the interpreted output of the LDIF file.
+ b) Implementations MAY support other URL formats. The
+ semantics associated with each supported URL will be
+ documented in an associated Applicability Statement.
+
+ 7) Distinguished names, relative distinguished names, and
+ attribute values of DirectoryString syntax MUST be valid UTF-8
+ strings. Implementations that read LDIF MAY interpret files
+ in which these entities are stored in some other character set
+ encoding, but implementations MUST NOT generate LDIF content
+ which does not contain valid UTF-8 data.
+
+
+
+
+
+Good Standards Track [Page 6]
+
+RFC 2849 LDAP Data Interchange Format June 2000
+
+
+ 8) Values or distinguished names that end with SPACE SHOULD be
+ base-64 encoded.
+
+ 9) When controls are included in an LDIF file, implementations
+ MAY choose to ignore some or all of them. This may be
+ necessary if the changes described in the LDIF file are being
+ sent on an LDAPv2 connection (LDAPv2 does not support
+ controls), or the particular controls are not supported by the
+ remote server. If the criticality of a control is "true", then
+ the implementation MUST either include the control, or MUST
+ NOT send the operation to a remote server.
+
+ 10) When an attrval-spec, distinguishedName, or rdn is base64-
+ encoded, the encoding rules specified in [5] are used with the
+ following exceptions: a) The requirement that base64 output
+ streams must be represented as lines of no more than 76
+ characters is removed. Lines in LDIF files may only be folded
+ according to the folding rules described in note 2, above. b)
+ Base64 strings in [5] may contain characters other than those
+ defined in BASE64-CHAR, and are ignored. LDIF does not permit
+ any extraneous characters, other than those used for line
+ folding.

+
+Security Considerations
+
+ Given typical directory applications, an LDIF file is likely to
+ contain sensitive personal data. Appropriate measures should be
+ taken to protect the privacy of those persons whose data is contained
+ in an LDIF file.
+
+ Since ":<" directives can cause external content to be included when
+ processing an LDIF file, one should be cautious of accepting LDIF
+ files from external sources. A "trojan" LDIF file could name a file
+ with sensitive contents and cause it to be included in a directory
+ entry, which a hostile entity could read via LDAP.
+
+ LDIF does not provide any method for carrying authentication
+ information with an LDIF file. Users of LDIF files must take care to
+ verify the integrity of an LDIF file received from an external
+ source.
+
+Acknowledgments
+
+ The LDAP Interchange Format was developed as part of the University
+ of Michigan LDAP reference implementation, and was developed by Tim
+ Howes, Mark Smith, and Gordon Good. It is based in part upon work
+ supported by the National Science Foundation under Grant No. NCR-
+ 9416667.
+
+ Members of the IETF LDAP Extensions Working group provided many
+ helpful suggestions. In particular, Hallvard B. Furuseth of the
+ University of Oslo made many significant contributions to this
+ document, including a thorough review and rewrite of the BNF.
