Emmanuel Lecharny commented on DIRSTUDIO-434:
---------------------------------------------

The problem is that Microsoft (as usual ...) is using its own syntax. Instead 
of using the 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.40 syntax, they defined a specific one 
(2.5.5.10) under an OID which should not be extended... Anyway, we won't change 
the way M$ is sabotaging the standards ...

Let's implement M$ syntaxes. The first step would be to list all of them, in 
order to avoid doing it again.

> When viewing an Active Directory entry objectGUID attributes are not 
> displayed, and it is also not possible to edit them. Same for objectSid, both 
> have the same syntax OID. The entry editor just shows "Invalid Data" for them.
> The attributes have binary values. They could be displayed either in hex 
> format (and the hex format can be used in searches as well, with a backslash 
> in front of every two hex digits), or using the preferred Microsoft format, 
> which is just the hex format shuffled and delimited with dashes.
> Here are a couple of articles that show how to convert from hex to the 
> Microsoft format:
