Name Form for Domain Objects
The OIDs in this group are under the iso.org.dod.internet.directory.NameForm branch of the OID tree (1.3.6.1.1.2).
The domainNameForm name form indicates that objects of structural object class domain have their RDN constructed from a value of the attribute dc.

Attribute:  associatedName 

Description:
The Associated Name attribute type specifies an entry in the organisational DIT associated with a DNS/NRS domain. See [3] for more details of usage of this attribute.

BNC Syntax:


Equality Matching: distinguishedNameMatch

Description:

Servers SHOULD be capable of performing the following matching rules.

For all these rules, the assertion syntax is the same as the value syntax.

When performing the caseIgnoreMatch, caseIgnoreListMatch, telephoneNumberMatch, caseExactIA5Match and caseIgnoreIA5Match, multiple adjoining whitespace characters are treated the same as an individual space, and leading and trailing whitespace is ignored.

Clients MUST NOT assume that servers are capable of transliteration of Unicode values.

BNC Syntax: 2.5.4.15 NAME 'businessCategory' EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch

Syntax: Directory String

ID : 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15
A string in this syntax is encoded in the UTF-8 form of ISO 10646 (a superset of Unicode). Servers and clients MUST be prepared to receive encodings of arbitrary Unicode characters, including characters not presently assigned to any character set.

For characters in the PrintableString form, the value is encoded as the string value itself.

If it is of the TeletexString form, then the characters are transliterated to their equivalents in UniversalString, and encoded in UTF-8 [9].

If it is of the UniversalString or BMPString forms [10], UTF-8 is used to encode them.

Note: the form of DirectoryString is not indicated in protocol unless the attribute value is carried in binary. Servers which convert to DAP MUST choose an appropriate form. Servers MUST NOT reject values merely because they contain legal Unicode characters outside of the range of printable ASCII.

Example:

This is a string of DirectoryString containing #!%#@

When performing the caseIgnoreMatch, caseIgnoreListMatch, telephoneNumberMatch, caseExactIA5Match and caseIgnoreIA5Match, multiple adjoining whitespace characters are treated the same as an individual space, and leading and trailing whitespace is ignored.

Clients MUST NOT assume that servers are capable of transliteration of Unicode values.

Attribute:  st 

(based on attribute  name)

Description:
This attribute contains the full name of a state or province (stateOrProvinceName).
Name of the canton, county, department, province or state with values in local and other languages as useful. If official and commonly used abbreviations exist for the states, they should be supplied as additional values

Example:

Ticino
Tessin
TI


BNC Syntax: 2.5.4.8 NAME 'st' SUP name EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch

Syntax: Directory String

ID : 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15
A string in this syntax is encoded in the UTF-8 form of ISO 10646 (a superset of Unicode). Servers and clients MUST be prepared to receive encodings of arbitrary Unicode characters, including characters not presently assigned to any character set.

For characters in the PrintableString form, the value is encoded as the string value itself.

If it is of the TeletexString form, then the characters are transliterated to their equivalents in UniversalString, and encoded in UTF-8 [9].

If it is of the UniversalString or BMPString forms [10], UTF-8 is used to encode them.

Note: the form of DirectoryString is not indicated in protocol unless the attribute value is carried in binary. Servers which convert to DAP MUST choose an appropriate form. Servers MUST NOT reject values merely because they contain legal Unicode characters outside of the range of printable ASCII.

Example:

This is a string of DirectoryString containing #!%#@

Description:


BNC Syntax: 2.5.4.22 NAME 'teletexTerminalIdentifier'

teletex-id = ttx-term 0*("$" ttx-param)
ttx-term = printablestring
ttx-param = ttx-key ":" ttx-value
ttx-key = "graphic" / "control" / "misc" / "page" / "private"
ttx-value = octetstring

In the above, actual-number is the syntactic representation of the number portion of the TELEX number being encoded, country is the TELEX country code, and answerback is the answerback code of a TELEX terminal.
 
BNC Syntax:



Attribute:  userPassword 

Description:
from earlier rfc2256:
Passwords are stored using an Octet String syntax and are not encrypted. Transfer of cleartext passwords are strongly discouraged where the underlying transport service cannot guarantee confidentiality and may result in disclosure of the password to unauthorized parties.
from later rfc2307
An entry of class posixAccount, posixGroup, or shadowAccount without A userPassword attribute MUST NOT be used for authentication. The client should be returned a non-matchable password such as "x".

userPassword values MUST be represented by following syntax:

passwordvalue = schemeprefix encryptedpassword
schemeprefix = "{" scheme "}"
scheme = "crypt" / "md5" / "sha" / altscheme
altscheme = "x-" keystring
encryptedpassword = encrypted password

The encrypted password contains of a plaintext key hashed using the algorithm scheme.

userPassword values which do not adhere to this syntax MUST NOT be used for authentication. The DUA MUST iterate through the values of the attribute until a value matching the above syntax is found. Only if encryptedpassword is an empty string does the user have no password. DUAs are not required to consider encryption schemes which the client will not recognize; in most cases, it may be sufficient to consider only "crypt".

Below is an example of a userPassword attribute:

userPassword: {crypt}X5/DBrWPOQQaI

A future standard may specify LDAP v3 attribute descriptions to represent hashed userPasswords, as noted below. This schema MUST NOT be used with LDAP v2 DUAs and DSAs.

attributetype = attributename sep attributeoption
attributename = "userPassword"
sep = ";"
attributeoption = schemeclass "-" scheme
schemeclass = "hash" / altschemeclass
scheme = "crypt" / "md5" / "sha" / altscheme
altschemeclass = "x-" keystring
altscheme = keystring

Below is an example of a userPassword attribute, represented with an LDAP v3 attribute description:

userPassword;hash-crypt: X5/DBrWPOQQaI

A DUA MAY utilise the attributes in the shadowAccount class to provide shadow password service (getspnam() and getspent()). In such cases, the DUA MUST NOT make use of the userPassword attribute for getpwnam() et al, and MUST return a non-matchable password (such as "x") to the client instead.

Syntax: Octet String

ID : 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.40

BNC Syntax:

Equality Matching: octetStringMatch

Description:
Servers which implement the extensibleMatch filter SHOULD allow the matching rule listed in this section to be used in the extensibleMatch. In general these servers SHOULD allow matching rules to be used with all attribute types known to the server, when the assertion syntax of the matching rule is the same as the value syntax of the attribute.
