ABSTRACT

   Directory 500 (D500) is a comprehensive implementation of the CCITT
   X.500 recommendations. D500 is comprised of two major components
   which are responsible for manipulating the data in the OSI Directory.
   They are the Directory User Agent (DUA) and the Directory System
   Agent (DSA).

   The DUA is the interface between the OSI Directory and those users
   wishing access to the Directory's information. Users make their
   requests through the DUA. When forwarding user's requests to the OSI
   Directory, the protocol used is known as the Directory Access
   Protocol (DAP).

   The DSA will negotiate with other, remote DSAs to obtain requested
   information or to update remote DIBs. DSAs use the Directory System
   Protocol (DSP) to forward and answer these requests. The DSA supports
   chaining and referrals.

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

   All X.500 1988 operations are supported along with all Object Classes
   specified in X.521 and all Attribute Types specified in X.520.

   Implementation plans include upgrades to support the 1992 extensions
   to X.500 in 1994. Please check with OSIware / Infonet Software
   Solutions for availability dates.

ABSTRACT

   DOS-DE (DOS Directory Enquiries) is intended to be a simple-to-use
   DUA interface suitable for the naive user.  It is an MS-DOS port of
   the standard UNIX DE implementation - see the entry on DE for full
   details.  (All of the features DE are supported apart from the
   experimental `Quality of Service' code).

   The user is presented with a series of (verbose) prompts asking for
   person's name; department; organization; country.  There is extensive
   on-line help.  The matching algorithms are such that near matches are
   presented to the user before less good matches.  `Power searching' is
   also available - this allows a user to search for an entry even when
   they do not know the name of the organisation in which the person
   works - you still have to specify the country.  DOS-DE provides UFN
   style searching.  It is also possible to search locality entries.
   DOS-DE uses slightly different search algorithms depending on whether
   it is accessing part of the Directory mastered by a Quipu DSA - Quipu
   DSAs tend to use lots of replication and so encourage searching.

   DOS-DE runs over the University of Michigan LDAP.

   DE was funded by the COSINE PARADISE project.  DOS-DE was developed
   by Andy Powell at the University of Bath.

CAVEATS and GENERAL LIMITATIONS

   DOS-DE tries to cater well for the general case, at the expense of
   not dealing with the less typical.  The main manifestation of this is
   that the current version does not handle searching under localities
   very well.

ABSTRACT

   HP X.500 Distributed Directory. Its main components are:

       DUA, and DUA Interface,
       DSA and DIB support,
       X.500 Address Lookup,
       X/Open Application Tool Kit API (XAT) for XDS/XOM Interface,
       X.500 High Level API (X5HLAPI) for XDS/XOM Interface.

   HP X.500 DUA. Its main components are:

       DUA, and DUA Interface,
       X.500 Address Look-up,
       X/Open Application Tool Kit API (XAT) for XDS/XOM Interface,
       X.500 High Level API (X5HLAPI) for XDS/XOM Interface.

   HP X.500 Distributed Directory is based on the 1988 CCITT X.500
   standard.  HP X.500 can be used for accessing names and electronic
   mail addresses for multi-vendor messaging backbone networks. HP X.500
   can also be used for the development of networked applications
   requiring distributed directory functionality.

   HP OpenMail users can access the enterprise wide HP X.500 distributed
   directory directly from the HP OpenMail user interface, and select
   X.500 addresses for mailing. HP-UX Sendmail users can access
   electronic mail addresses from a X.500 server over a TCP/IP network.

   Users of non-HP e-mail systems can access data stored in the X.500
   Directory using X.500 Address Look-up. X.500 Address Look-up has an
   easy to use interface, and phonetic search capability.

   HP X.500 Distributed Directory includes a complete multi-threaded DUA
   and DSA. The X.500 DIB is built on a database which has been
   optimized for X.500 performance. HP X.500 contains full support for
   DAP and DSP protocols.
ToP   noToC   RFC1632 - Page 45
   Data Shadowing and security access control of HP X.500 Distributed
   Directory allow higher performance, and easier management of its DIB
   database in a global environment.

   HP X.500 Distributed Directory has menu driven administration and
   user interface tools. The tools simplify directory configuration and
   data retrieval. It supports X/Open X.500 APIs (XDS and XOM), and high
   level APIs on top of XDS to allow developers to write their own X.500
   based applications.

   HP X.500 Distributed Directory supports comprehensive tracing and
   logging facilities for quick diagnosis and resolution of problems. HP
   also provides a rich set of troubleshooting tools to check the
   interoperability of the network at various layers of the OSI stack.

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

   HP X.500 Distributed Directory complies with the following standards:

     CCITT X.501:  The Directory - Models
     CCITT X.509:  The Directory - Authentications Framework*

     CCITT X.518:  The Directory - Procedures for Distributed Operations
     CCITT X.519:  The Directory - Protocol Specifications
     CCITT X.520:  The Directory - Selected Attribute Types
     CCITT X.521:  The Directory - Selected Object Classes
     CCITT X.219:  Remote Operations - Model, Notation and Service
   Definition
     CCITT X.229:  Remote Operations - Protocol Specifications

     *x.509 describes simple and strong authentication. HP X.500
      Distributed Directory supports simple authentication. Strong
      authentication is not supported in the current release due to
      limited market demand.

   HP X.500 Distributed Directory will comply with NIST and EWOS
   directory functional profiles. Based on factors such as market needs
   and NIST recommendations, HP will implement subsets of 1992 CCITT
   functionality in a phased approach.

ABSTRACT

   LDAP is the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol.  It gives X.500
   access to platforms that have only TCP/IP access, using simplified
   BER encoding of many X.500 data elements.  LDAP is currently a
   proposed Internet Standard.  The LDAP server is an intermediate
   protocol server that communicates with Internet clients on one side
   using the simple TCP-based LDAP protocol and an X.500 DSA on the
   other side using the Directory Access Protocol (DAP).  A subset of
   the X.500 DAP is exported to the clients through the LDAP protocol.

   The U-M LDAP distribution contains the following components:

   - LDAP server
   - LDAP client library, including both synchronous and asynchronous APIs
   - Lightweight BER library, including an API that supports
     a printf/scanf-like interface
   - Various LDAP client programs, including a finger daemon (xfingerd),
     gopher to X.500 gateway (go500gw), command-line DUA (ud), e-mail
     query server (rcpt500), and an X.500 mailer (mail500)


COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

   The U-M LDAP distribution is a complete implementation of the LDAP
   protocol.  The LDAP protocol does not support access to all X.500
   features and operations.  The operations supported are bind, search,
   compare, add, delete, modify, modify RDN, and abandon.  Note that

   Compliant with [RFC 1485], [RFC 1487], and [RFC 1274].

CONSISTENCE WITH INFORMATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RFCs

   Preliminary support is included for [RFC 1484].

INTEROPERABILITY

   The current implementation of the LDAP server is known to work with
   the QUIPU DSA and DAP library.

PILOT CONNECTIVITY

   DUA connectivity should be possible to all pilots, though only
   AARNET, PARADISE, and PSI White Pages Project have actually been
   tried.

BUGS

   Bug reports should be sent to bug-ldap@umich.edu.

CAVEATS and GENERAL LIMITATIONS

   None, aside from those mentioned above under completeness.

INTERNETWORKING ENVIRONMENT

   LDAP clients use TCP to communicate with the LDAP server.  The LDAP
   server normally uses RFC 1006 with TCP/IP to communicate with the
   DSA, though any other transport mechanism for DSA communication
   supported by ISODE should be possible.

HARDWARE PLATFORMS

   The LDAP server is known to run on Sun 3 and Sun 4 platforms DEC's,
   HP's, and RS 6000's.  The LDAP client libraries and some clients have
   been ported to the Macintosh and the PC.

SOFTWARE PLATFORMS

   The LDAP server and clients are known to run under and SunOS 4.1.x,
   ULTRIX, HP-UX, and AIX.  The LDAP client libraries also work under
   Macintosh System 6.0 or higher and MS-DOS 5.0.

ABSTRACT

   maX.500 is a Directory User Agent for Apple Macintosh.  It is
   currently at version 2.0, which uses the Lightweight Directory Access
   Protocol (LDAP) over TCP/IP to access The Directory.  maX.500 can be
   used to search for, view, create, delete, and modify entries.  It
   supports viewing of textual information, playing of audio, and
   viewing of black and white (fax) and color (JPEG) images.

   maX.500 is a native Macintosh application, and as such has a friendly
   interface.  It requires System Software version 6.0.5 or later and
   Apple's MacTCP control panel.

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

   maX.500 works over LDAP, and is subject to LDAP's limitations.  The
   X.500 bind, search, compare, add, delete, abandon, and modify
   operations are used by maX.500.  Size and time limits may be
   specified, as may alias dereferencing and searching.

CONFORMANCE WITH PROPOSED INTERNET STANDARDS

   Compliant with [RFC 1485], [RFC 1487], and [RFC 1274].

CONSISTENCE WITH INFORMATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RFCs

   Preliminary support is included for [RFC 1484] (same as U-M LDAP).

INTEROPERABILITY

   maX.500 2.0 is known to work with the U-M LDAP server.  It has been
   used successfully with the QUIPU DSA and others.

   with the  LDAP server.  Apple's MacTCP control panel is required on
   the Macintosh.

HARDWARE PLATFORMS

   maX.500 runs on Apple Macintosh Plus or later computers.  It requires
   1MB of RAM.

SOFTWARE PLATFORMS

   maX.500 requires Apple System Software 6.0.5 or later (System 7
   preferred) and MacTCP 1.1 or later (1.1.1 preferred).
