This is a second pass at a general Gopher to X.500 gateway. It is
|
||
|
somewhat tailored to white pages usage, but is pretty general.
|
||
|
|
||
|
There are two modes of operation that the gateway supports: browsing
|
||
|
and searching. To browse, simply choose one of the countries,
|
||
|
organizations, etc. that appear in gopher as menu items. The next
|
||
|
level of the X.500 DIT will then be displayed. To search, choose the
|
||
|
search item (second choice in all menus) and type the name of whatever
|
||
|
it is you're looking for. At the upper levels of the tree (i.e. root
|
||
|
or country level) searches are assumed to be for organizations or
|
||
|
localities and are one-level in scope. At the lower levels of the tree
|
||
|
(i.e. organization or organizationalunit level) searches are assumed to
|
||
|
be for people and are subtree in scope. What sort of search is done
|
||
|
depends on what you type, but a variety of things are tried.
