Dear list,

I do have some maybe really silly questions and apologize in advance.

We run a content management system from coremedia which authenticates its users against apacheds 1.5 ldap server.

This content management system started running using IBM Tivoli Directory Server. But due to limitations in IBM TDS we switched to ApacheDS and decided to use ApacheDS 1.5 cause of its master-master-replication possibilities and its better support of aliases.

The LDAP schema created in IBM TDS was like this:

DN: cn=users,cn=cms,dc=APPLICATIONS,dc=DOUGLASHOLDING

or

DN: cn=users, dc=VERWALTUNG, dc=DOUGLASHOLDING

or

DN: uid=00370029, cn=users, dc=VERWALTUNG, dc=DOUGLASHOLDING

We had to migrate this IBM TDS schema and had some problems with this in the past. So... Here comes my questions:

- Is ApacheDS case-sensitive? is there a difference for apacheds between dc=APPLICATIONS,dc=DOUGLASHOLDING and dc=applications,dc=douglasholding?

- Is ApacheDS whitespace-sensitive? is there a difference for apacheds between DN: uid=00370029, cn=users, dc=VERWALTUNG, dc=DOUGLASHOLDING and DN: uid=00370029,cn=users,dc=VERWALTUNG,dc=DOUGLASHOLDING?

Please, I would really appreciate any comments and replies to this.
Help is really appreciated!

TIA,
Markus Pohle
