Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRSTUDIO-348:
---------------------------------------------
The 'name' attribute is an essential part of LDAP schema. It's explicitly said
in RFC 4519 that 'name' attributeType should be recognized by a LDAP server :
2. Attribute Types
The attribute types contained in this section hold user information.
There is no requirement that servers implement the 'searchGuide' and
'teletexTerminalIdentifier' attribute types. In fact, their use is
greatly discouraged.
An LDAP server implementation SHOULD recognize the rest of the
attribute types described in this section.
...
2.18. 'name'
The 'name' attribute type is the attribute supertype from which user
attribute types with the name syntax inherit. Such attribute types
are typically used for naming. The attribute type is multi-valued.
It is unlikely that values of this type itself will occur in an
entry. LDAP server implementations that do not support attribute
subtyping need not recognize this attribute in requests. Client
implementations MUST NOT assume that LDAP servers are capable of
performing attribute subtyping.

> LDAP Studio 1.1.0 shows non existing attribute "name" when accessing
> eDirectory 8.8 on every entry. The value of this attribute is always equal to
> cn. Attribute "name" is not a valid LDAP attribute in the eDirectory schema.
> Attribute can not be deleted or modified:
> Error while modifying value
> [LDAP: error code 17 - Undefined Attribute Type]
> [LDAP: error code 17 - Undefined Attribute Type]
> Object copy with "Copy Entry/DN" fails with the same error.
