Subject: Server Side Searching Overlay
Date: Mon, 21 Dec 2015 19:27:01 -0500




So I have a request from developers to enable the sssvlv overlay. They would 
like the server to return sorted searches on
I enabled the overlay and then to test the functionality I added the following 
"ordering" rule to the core.schema.
attributetype ( 2.5.4.4 NAME ( 'sn' 'surname' )        DESC 'RFC2256: last 
(family) name(s) for which the entity is known by'        ORDERING 
caseIgnoreOrderingMatch        SUP name )
The following ldapsearch works as expected and returns the "sn" attribute in 
alphabetical order.
ldapsearch -x -ZZ -D cn=root,dc=testlott,dc=lott -w password objectclass=person 
-E sss=sn sn

Based on this information I have several questions.
1. Will I be violating any RFC by modifying the core.schema?2. The developers 
want the same functionality with the "cn" attribute. Is this supported or even 
possible?3. They also request this functionality on a couple of attributes in a 
custom schema. Is adding an "ordering" rule as I did with the "sn" attribute 
the proper way to do this?

Thanks.
