Altough defined as multi-valued in the schema it's defacto single-valued. That means: - on LDAP entry add operations you are able to set it multi-valued - on LDAP entry change operations you aren't - e.g. if you try to replace it multi-valued or perform a multi-valued add you get ERR_ATTRIBUTE_ALREADY_EXISTS. As far as I know I didn't find much in the docs about this strange behaviour and as far as I can tell it only applies to "description". It would be nice to enhance MS-ADTS regarding it and to start some investigation if it wouldn't be better to really define it as single-valued in the schema.
