The standard requires the definition of a structural object class. As, like inetorgperson, some structural object classes are part of a object class chain some directories require all members of this object class chain. OpenLDAP only requires the last object class of a chain, so for OpenLDAP ist would be sufficiant to declare only inetorgperson not even top but it does no harm to declare the full chain. -Dieter -- Dieter Klünter | Systemberatung http://www.dkluenter.de GPG Key ID:8EF7B6C6 --- You are currently subscribed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word UNSUBSCRIBE as the SUBJECT of the message.
