Re: [Fedora-directory-users] FDS to AD sync weirdness ... CN changes, unique constraints.

I believe that CN is a multivalued attribute (at least in FDS). So, if it's any help, you could have unique CNs that are used in the entries' DNs, and optionally have additional CNs that may not be unique. That works well in FDS, but not in AD and entryDNs with multivalued CNs won't sync over

I regard AD as broken by design in this regard. My question is, can this be fixed? What would be the right way to approach this problem? Yes it's broken by design. As far as I know the way to work around it is to assign unique CN's (e.g. include middle initials, something like that). -- Fedo

We are experimenting with Fedora Directory Server and trying to sync it to AD. Setting up SSL for both and initiating sync was successful. However, it seems that DN in AD is constructed from the CN, which is the full name. However, that's neigh impossible, since DN has a unique constraint, bu
