Hi Thorsten,
Just to follow up my own questions: I really love ApacheDS because of
the sheer beauty and simplicity of its setup and configuration but I
find some rather odd behaviour the more I dig into internals:
4. I tried to query the RootDSE object via Python - without sucess -
what values you are expecting from RootDSE?
then I tried the same with OpenLDAP's ldapsearch: same issue:
thors...@tkampe% ldapsearch -x -LLL -b "" -s base
dn:
objectClass: extensibleObject
objectClass: top
most of the values in rootDSE are operational attributes append + at the end of
the above
command to see them
...while the same queries work against an eDirectory and Active
Directory server. It also seems that LDAP clients have problems
displaying the RootDSE object: Softerra's six year old LDAP Browser and
Apache Directory Studio can display the RootDSE object while LDAP Admin
and LDAPSoft's LDAP Browser can't. What's going on here?
No idea at all
