It does not work, because we can't tell if test.ldif is associated with
cn=test or with sn=test.
So we need to use the AT :
/cn=test
/sn=test
cn=test.ldif
sn=test.ldif
Now, can we do that on all the FS ? On linux, the answer is yes. What
about Mac OS/X ? W$ ? Solaris ?
OpenLDAP already does this. In Unix filesystems (that includes Linux,
MacOSX, and Solaris) the only reserved character is slash '/'. On
Windows the only special characters are colon ':' and dot '.'. There
should be only one dot and there cannot be any colon. Hex-escape these
characters if they appear in an RDN and you'll be fine.
Not enough... if the AT is case-sensitive, you will have to create 2
entries, but then, on this loosy Widnows system, it won't work...
See my next mail too.
