Does the existence of these extra attributes cause your ldap queries to fail? Or is your admin just wondering why they are there?
I don't know about iPlanet, but I have never seen any attributes like this in Active Directory, so even if you specifically asked for them in your query, there would be nothing to return anyway. Unless you wanted to put in a support call to Macromedia, I would just say, "That's the way it is." Many of us use CFLDAP and I have not seen this issue other than when you asked it a while back. It's good to have an anal system admin, but at some point, they just gotta let it go.

If there is someone that could recommend a support path, I would *really* appreciate it as this is causing big problems for me. Here are the details: When I run an LDAP query, Coldfusion is asking for a bunch of additional Java objects. I would hope that someone can help me explain it to my LDAP admin that it's normal, or at least what they are. Here's the LDAP query I'm trying to perform: <cfldap action="query" name="qCheckUsername" server="#ldapserver#" port="389" attributes="uid" maxrows="100" start="cn=People,ou=school,dc=edu" scope="subtree" filter="(uid=#someuid#)" username="uid=#myuserid#,cn=people,ou=school,dc=edu" password="#mypassword#"> The problem that I'm having is instead of ColdFusion only asking for just the UID in the LDAP query, it is also asking for a bunch of other stuff. Take a look at what iPlanet shows in the logs: attrs="uid objectClass javaSerializedData javaClassName javaFactory javaCodebase javaReferenceAddress javaClassNames javaremotelocation" Any idea why ColdFusion (and/or the java subsystem) is asking for all of those extra attributes? Know what they are? I really only need the uid. My LDAP admin is extremely tight and does not want to give access to those objects because he doesn't know what they are so unfortunately I can't get any info at all! So, I just need to figure out what those extra attributes are so then maybe I can convince him to allow CF to see them. Any help would be very much appreciated!
