RE: [ActiveDir] seeAlso

2006-09-15 Thread joe
I generally try to dissuade folks from pillaging the base schema
attributes... While MSFT may not be using them now it doesn't mean that
later they won't start and you could be stuck in a difficult position.
Creating a new attribute is relatively painless if you follow the basic
rules, get an OID and properly register a prefix, and be sure of the
capability you want when you define it. Schema updates are not dangerous,
poorly planned and executed schema updates are dangerous.

Does anyone know if the seeAlso attribute is used by any specific
application or is it up for grabs?  I'm thinking about using it to store
an alternate contact for a user.

That is good to know.  I'm not planning on doing queries based on this
attribute; I'll simply be doing enumerations.  So I think I should be
good to go.

Thanks

I've not seen it used by any specific app.  Bear in mind that it is:

multivalued
not indexed
not a member of the partial attribute set (i.e. not replicated via GC)

PS. I've always wanted to extend the schema with a new attribute named
tracesOfPeanuts, simply so I can see May Contain: tracesOfPeanuts. :-)
