Hi Tridge,
I have taken ownership of this case regarding AD attributes (case SRX090601600044). I will be communicating with you as soon as I have updates or clarification questions. Best regards, Edgar A. Olougouna Sr. SEE, Microsoft DSC Protocol Team -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, June 01, 2009 12:28 AM To: Interoperability Documentation Help Cc: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: CAR: how are unique attributes determined? We would like to know how to work out which attributes in AD are uniquely indexed. We know that attributes like samAccountName, objectGUID and objectSID are all unique. So if you try to create the following two records using LDAP: dn: CN=test1,OU=User2,DC=vsofs8,DC=com sAMAccountName: test1 objectClass: user dn: CN=test1,OU=User3,DC=vsofs8,DC=com sAMAccountName: test1 objectClass: user then windows AD implementation will return LDAP_ERR_ALREADY_EXISTS for the second one, presumably because samAccountName is a unique attribute. This makes sense, as you don't want two users with the same account name. What we can't work out is how to find the list of unique attributes. We can't find anything in the schema that tells us an attribute is unique. What part in the schema gives us that? Or is it somewhere outside the schema?
