Hi guys,

I've got a programming task where I need to find out the name of the
operational UUID attribute that an LDAP server uses.

It seems this attribute name isn't particularly standardised among
vendors, perhaps because an RFC (4530) addressing the issue doesn't
appear until 2006.

Now I'm compiling a list of the various names, which I would then use
in a routine to detect the attribute. Please, have a look at it and
post your additions or corrections. Once the list is compiled, I
intend to put it on the web for general reference.


entryUUID - OpenLDAP, OpenDS/OpenDJ

objectGUID - Microsoft Active Directory

GUID - Novell eDirectory

ibm-entryUuid - IBM Tivoli DS


Thanks,


Vladimir
