1. Background and Intended Use
This document provides descriptions [RFC2252] of user schema for use
with LDAP [LDAPTS] collected from numerous sources.
This document includes a summary of select schema introduced for the
COSINE and Internet X.500 pilot projects [RFC1274]. This document
obsoletes RFC 1274.
This document contains a summary of X.500 user schema [X.520] not
included in LDAPv3 [RFC2252][RFC2256]. Some of these items were
described in the inetOrgPerson [RFC2798] schema. This document
supercedes these descriptions, replacing sections 9.1.3 and 9.3.3 of
RFC 2798.
2. Matching Rules
This section introduces LDAP matching rules based upon descriptions of
Zeilenga draft-zeilenga-ldap-user-schema-03 [Page 3]
INTERNET-DRAFT LDAPv3: A Collection of User Schema 20 October 2001
their X.500 counterparts.
2.1. booleanMatch
BooleanMatch compares for equality a asserted Boolean value with an
attribute value of BOOLEAN syntax. The rule returns TRUE if and only
if the values are the same, i.e. both are TRUE or both are FALSE.
(Source: X.520)
( 2.5.13.13 NAME 'booleanMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.7 )
2.2. caseExactMatch
CaseExactMatch compares for equality the asserted value with an
attribute value of DirectoryString syntax. The rule is identical to
the caseIgnoreMatch [RFC2252] rule except that case is not ignored.
(Source: X.520)
( 2.5.13.5 NAME 'caseExactMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 )
2.3. caseExactOrderingMatch
CaseExactOrderingMatch compares the collation order of the asserted
string with an attribute value of DirectoryString syntax. The rule is
identical to the caseIgnoreOrderingMatch [RFC2252] rule except that
letters are not folded. (Source: X.520)
( 2.5.13.6 NAME 'caseExactOrderingMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 )
2.3. caseExactSubstringsMatch
CaseExactSubstringsMatch determines whether the asserted value are
substrings of an attribute value of DirectoryString syntax. The rule
is identical to the caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch [RFC2252] rule except
that case is not ignored. (Source: X.520)
( 2.5.13.7 NAME 'caseExactSubstringsMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.58 )
2.4. caseIgnoreListSubstringsMatch
Zeilenga draft-zeilenga-ldap-user-schema-03 [Page 4]
INTERNET-DRAFT LDAPv3: A Collection of User Schema 20 October 2001
CaseIgnoreListSubstringMatch compares the asserted substring with an
attribute value which is a sequence of DirectoryStrings, but where the
case (upper or lower) is not significant for comparison purposes. The
asserted value matches a stored value if and only if the asserted
value matches the string formed by concatenating the strings of the
stored value. This matching is done according to the
caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch [RFC2252] rule; however, none of the
initial, any, or final values of the asserted value are considered to
match a substring of the concatenated string which spans more than one
of the strings of the stored value. (Source: X.520)
( 2.5.13.12 NAME 'caseIgnoreListSubstringsMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.58 )
2.5. directoryStringFirstComponentMatch
DirectoryStringFirstComponentMatch compares for equality the asserted
DirectoryString value with an attribute value of type SEQUENCE whose
first component is mandatory and of type DirectoryString. The rule
returns TRUE if and only if the attribute value has a first component
whose value matches the asserted DirectoryString using the rules of
caseIgnoreMatch [RFC2252]. A value of the assertion syntax is derived
from a value of the attribute syntax by using the value of the first
component of the SEQUENCE. (Source: X.520)
( 2.5.13.31 NAME 'directoryStringFirstComponentMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 )
2.6. integerOrderingMatch
The integerOrderingMatch rule compares the ordering of the asserted
integer with an attribute value of Integer syntax. The rule returns
True if the attribute value is less than the asserted value. (Source:
X.520)
( 2.5.13.15 NAME 'integerOrderingMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.27 )
2.7. keywordMatch
The keywordMatch rule compares the asserted string with keywords in an
attribute value of DirectoryString syntax. The rule returns TRUE if
and only if the asserted value matches any keyword in the attribute
value. The identification of keywords in an attribute value and of
the exactness of match are both implementation specific. (Source:
Zeilenga draft-zeilenga-ldap-user-schema-03 [Page 5]
INTERNET-DRAFT LDAPv3: A Collection of User Schema 20 October 2001
X.520)
( 2.5.13.32 NAME 'keywordMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 )
2.8. numericStringOrderingMatch
NumericStringOrderingMatch compares the collation order of the
asserted string with an attribute value of NumericString syntax. The
rule is identical to the caseIgnoreOrderingMatch [RFC2252] rule except
that all space characters are skipped during comparison (case is
irrelevant as characters are numeric). (Source: X.520)
( 2.5.13.9 NAME 'NumericStringOrderingMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.36 )
2.9. octetStringOrderingMatch
OctetStringOrderingMatch compares the collation order of the asserted
octet string with an attribute value of OCTET STRING syntax. The rule
compares octet strings from first octet to last octet, and from the
most significant bit to the least significant bit within the octet.
The first occurrence of a different bit determines the ordering of the
strings. A zero bit precedes a one bit. If the strings are identical
but contain different numbers of octets, the shorter string precedes
the longer string. (Source: X.520)
( 2.5.13.18 NAME 'octetStringOrderingMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.40 )
2.10. storedPrefixMatch
StoredPrefixMatch determines whether an attribute value, whose syntax
is DirectoryString, is a prefix (i.e. initial substring) of the
asserted value, without regard to the case (upper or lower) of the
strings. The rule returns TRUE if and only if the attribute value is
an initial substring of the asserted value with corresponding
characters identical except possibly with regard to case. (Source:
X.520)
( 2.5.13.41 NAME 'storedPrefixMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 )
Note: This rule can be used, for example, to compare values in the
Directory which are telephone area codes with a purported value
Zeilenga draft-zeilenga-ldap-user-schema-03 [Page 6]
INTERNET-DRAFT LDAPv3: A Collection of User Schema 20 October 2001
which is a telephone number.
2.11. wordMatch
The wordMatch rule compares the asserted string with words in an
attribute value of DirectoryString syntax. The rule returns TRUE if
and only if the asserted word matches any word in the attribute value.
Individual word matching is as for the caseIgnoreMatch [RFC2252]
matching rule. The precise definition of a "word" is implementation
specific. (Source: X.520)
( 2.5.13.32 NAME 'wordMatch'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 )

Note: X.520 describes an attribute also called 'uniqueIdentifier'
(2.5.4.45) which is called 'x500UniqueIdentifier' in LDAP
[RFC2256]. The attribute detailed here ought not be confused
with x500UniqueIdentifier.
3.28. userClass
The userClass attribute type specifies a category of computer user.
The semantics placed on this attribute are for local interpretation.
Examples of current usage od this attribute in academia are

organizationalStatus attribute may now often be preferred as it makes
no distinction between computer users and others. (Source: RFC 1274)

4. Object Classes
This section details attribute types for use in LDAP based upon their
X.500 descriptions.
4.1. account
The account object class is used to define entries representing
computer accounts. The uid (userid) attribute should be used for
naming entries of this object class. (Source: RFC 1274)
( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.4.5
NAME 'account'
SUP top STRUCTURAL
MUST uid
MAY ( description $ seeAlso $ l $ o $ ou $ host ) )
4.2. document
The document object class is used to define entries which represent
documents. (Source: RFC 1274)
( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.4.6
NAME 'document'
SUP top STRUCTURAL
MUST documentIdentifier
MAY ( cn $ description $ seeAlso $ l $ o $ ou $
documentTitle $ documentVersion $ documentAuthor $
documentLocation $ documentPublisher ) )
4.3. documentSeries
The documentSeries object class is used to define an entry which
represents a series of documents (e.g., The Request For Comments
memos). (Source: RFC 1274)

NAME 'documentSeries'
SUP top STRUCTURAL
MUST cn
MAY ( description $ l $ o $ ou $ seeAlso $
telephonenumber ) )
4.4. domainRelatedObject
The domainRelatedObject object class is used to define entries which
represent DNS domains which are "equivalent" to an X.500 domain: e.g.,
an organization or organizational unit. (Source: RFC 1274)
( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.4.17
NAME 'domainRelatedObject'
SUP top AUXILIARY
MUST associatedDomain )
4.5. friendlyCountry
The friendlyCountry object class is used to define country entries in
the DIT. The object class is used to allow friendlier naming of
countries than that allowed by the object class country. The naming
attribute of object class country, c (countryName), has to be a 2
letter string defined in [ISO3166]. (Source: RFC 1274)
( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.4.18
NAME 'friendlyCountry'
SUP country STRUCTURAL
MUST co )
4.6. rFC822LocalPart
The rFC822LocalPart object class is used to define entries which
represent the local part of RFC822 mail addresses. This treats this
part of an RFC822 address as a domain [RFC2247]. (Source: RFC 1274)
( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.4.14
NAME 'rFC822localPart'
SUP domain STRUCTURAL
MAY ( cn $ description $ destinationIndicator $
facsimileTelephoneNumber $ internationaliSDNNumber $
physicalDeliveryOfficeName $ postalAddress $
postalCode $ postOfficeBox $ preferredDeliveryMethod $
registeredAddress $ seeAlso $ sn $ street $

telephoneNumber $ teletexTerminalIdentifier $
telexNumber $ x121Address ) )
4.7. room
The room object class is used to define entries representing rooms.
The cn (commonName) attribute should be used for naming entries of
this object class. (Source: RFC 1274)
( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.4.7 NAME 'room'
SUP top STRUCTURAL
MUST cn
MAY ( roomNumber $ description $
seeAlso $ telephoneNumber ) )
4.8. simpleSecurityObject
The simpleSecurityObject object class is used to allow an entry to
have a userPassword attribute when an entry's principal object classes
do not allow userPassword as an attribute type. (Source: RFC 1274)
( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.4.19 NAME 'simpleSecurityObject'
SUP top AUXILIARY
MUST userPassword )
Note: Security considerations related to the use of simple
authentication mechanisms in LDAP are discussed in RFC 2829
[RFC2829].
5. Security Considerations
General LDAP security considerations [LDAPTS] is applicable to the use
of this schema. Additional considerations are noted above where
appropriate.
