I am writing an LDAP client at the moment ;-) I'd like my client to provide a description of each object class, attribute, attribute type, and possible allowed lengths. Talking about lenghts: A few attributes seem to have rather arbitrary lengths (e.g. cn=32768, description=1024), while others have none. > It depends on the client and which schema element is actually missing. > > BTW: I will present some aspects regarding missing schema elements in my > LDAPcon talk next week. > > Why are you digging into this so deeply?
