   ISOPLEX DS (tm) DSA

   ISOCOR

ABSTRACT

   ISOCOR's ISOPLEX DS Directory Services Product Family also includes:

      ISOPLEX DS Import/Export Utility for Windows
      ISOPLEX DS Navigator
      ISOPLEX DS Directory Access XDS/XOM APIs
      ISOGATE DS (tm) Oracle

   The ISOPLEX DS provides a 1988 X.500 conformant Directory System
   Agent (DSA), a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) daemon to
   service Directory requests via LDAP, a UNIX Directory shell user
   agent (DISH), a Motif Directory Administrator interface to configure
   the first level and subordinate DSAs, and supporting utilities to
   handle bulk loading of the Directory, maintain statistics, and
   provide logging information.

   In addition to supporting memory-based Directory Information Bases
   (DIBs), the ISOPLEX DS includes the optional configuration of
   delegate DSA processes for storing selected subtrees of the Directory
   Information Tree (DIT) in disk-based index and data files.

   The ISOPLEX DS includes a set of utilities integrating it with key
   technology. The most important of these tools is the World Wide Web
   to X.500 gateway, which supports Hyper-Text Markup Language (HTML)-
   based DUA bindings to the ISOPLEX DS DSA via the ISOPLEX DS LDAP
   daemon process.

   The ISOPLEX DS additionally provides Simple Network Management
   Protocol (SNMP) functionality that works in conjunction with an
   existing SNMP environment. The ISOPLEX DS functionality is
   specifically designed to monitor a DSA's DSP and DAP connections from
   a network managment system and uses the X.500 Directory monitoring
   Management Information Base (MIB), which is based on [RFC 1567].

NAME

   LDAP

   University of Michigan

ABSTRACT

   UM-LDAP is an implementation of the Lightweight Directory Access
   Protocol. LDAP is a draft Internet standard directory service
   protocol that runs over TCP/IP. It can be used to provide a stand-
   alone directory service, or to provide lightweight access to the
   X.500 directory.  LDAP is defined by [RFC 1777] and [RFC 1778].

   The UM-LDAP package includes the following components:

      * slapd - a stand-alone LDAP directory server

      * slurpd - a stand-alone LDAP replication server

      * ldapd - an LDAP-to-X.500 gateway server

      * centipede - an LDAP centroid generation and maintenance
        program

      * libldap - an LDAP client library

      * liblber - a lightweight BER/DER encoding/decoding library

      * ldif tools - data conversion tools for use with slapd

      * in.xfingerd - a finger-to-LDAP gateway server

      * go500 - a gopher-to-LDAP gateway server for searching

      * go500gw - a gopher-to-LDAP gateway server for searching and
        browsing

      * rcpt500 - an email-to-LDAP query responder

      * mail500 - an LDAP-capable mailer

      * fax500 - an LDAP-capable mailer that supports remote printing

      * LDAP tools - A collection of shell-based LDAP utility
        programs
ToP   noToC   RFC2116 - Page 109
   In addition, there are some contributed components:

      * web500 - an HTTP-to-LDAP gateway

      * whois++d - a WHOIS++-to-LDAP gateway

      * saucer - a simple command-line oriented client program

   The latest information about LDAP can always be found on the LDAP
   Home Page at this URL:

   http://www.umich.edu/~rsug/ldap/

COMPLIANCE with X.500-1988 (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
   read and list operations can be emulated using the search operation.
   Size and time limits may be specified, as may alias dereferencing and
   searching, but all X.500 service controls are not supported.

COMPLIANCE with X.500-1993 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

   Since the LDAP protocol itself has not yet been updated to support
   any 1993-specific X.500 features, this implementation does support
   any 1993 features yet either.

CONFORMANCE WITH PROPOSED INTERNET STANDARDS

   Believed to be compliant with:

      [RFC 1274], [RFC 1777], [RFC 1778], [RFC 1779], [RFC 1781]

CONSISTENCE WITH INFORMATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RFCs

   Includes an implementation of the LDAP API, as defined in [RFC 1823].
   Search filters used within UM-LDAP comply with [RFC 1558].

INTEROPERABILITY

   The current implementation of the X.500-backended LDAP server (ldapd)
   is known to work with ISODE-based DAP libraries and the QUIPU DSA.

PILOT CONNECTIVITY

   DUA connectivity should be possible to all pilots.
ToP   noToC   RFC2116 - Page 110
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 complete UM-LDAP package has been ported to a wide variety of
   UNIX systems, including: Sun3 and SPARCs running SunOS 4.1.x or
   Solaris 2.x, DECStations running Ultrix 4.3, HP 9000 series running
   HP-UX 9.05, IBM RS6000 running AIX 3.2.5, PCs running SCO, FreeBSD,
   NetBSD, or LINUX, DEC Alphas running OSF/1, and NeXTStatios running
   NeXTSTEP 3.2.  The complete package has also been ported to VMS.  In
   addition, the LDAP client libraries and some client programs have
   been ported to Apple Macintosh and PCs running MSDOS or Windows.

SOFTWARE PLATFORMS

   The complete UM-LDAP package has been ported to a wide variety of
   UNIX systems, including: SunOS 4.1.x, Solaris 2.x, Ultrix 4.3, HP-UX
   9.05, AIX 3.2.5, SCO, FreeBSD, NetBSD, LINUX, OSF/1, and NeXTSTEP
   3.2.  It has also been ported to VMS.  In addition, the LDAP client
   libraries and some clients have been ported to Macintosh (System 7),
   MSDOS (some TCP/IP stacks), and Microsoft Windows 3.1, 95, and NT.

NUMBER OF IMPLEMENTATIONS IN THE FIELD

   maX.500 :: Macintosh DUA Interface

   University of Michigan

ABSTRACT

   maX.500 is a Directory User Agent (client) for Apple Macintosh.  It
   is widely used within Paradise and other Internet X.500 pilots.
   maX.500 supports searching, browsing, and modifying directory
   entries.  Display of textual information, playing of audio, and
   viewing of both black-and-white (fax) and color (JPEG) images are
   supported.  Communication with directory servers is via the
   Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) over TCP/IP.  maX.500
   works both with standalone LDAP directory servers (such as slapd) and
   with X.500-backended LDAP servers (such as ldapd).

   maX.500 is a native Macintosh application, and has a friendly
   interface.  It requires System Software version 6.0.5 or later and
   Apple's MacTCP or Open Transport TCP/IP networking. The current
   version of maX.500 is 2.0.2, although version 2.1 is in beta test.

   The latest information about maX.500 can always be found on the
   maX.500 Home Page at this URL:
   http://www.umich.edu/~rsug/ldap/max500/

COMPLIANCE with X.500-1988 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

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

COMPLIANCE with X.500-1993 (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

   maX.500 currently uses LDAP as defined in [RFC 1777], which does not
   support any 1993-specific X.500 features.

CONFORMANCE WITH PROPOSED INTERNET STANDARDS

      Believed to be compliant with:

      [RFC 1274], [RFC 1777], [RFC 1778], [RFC 1779], [RFC 1781]
ToP   noToC   RFC2116 - Page 113
CONSISTENCE WITH INFORMATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RFCs

   Search filters comply with [RFC 1558].

   Uses the LDAP API, as defined in [RFC 1823].

INTEROPERABILITY

   maX.500 is known to work with the U-M LDAP servers (ldapd and slapd).
   It has also been tested with other commerical LDAP servers, such as
   Control Data's server.  maX.500 has been used with a wide variety of
   DSAs (always through an LDAP server).

PILOT CONNECTIVITY

   DUA connectivity should be possible to all pilots.

BUGS

   Bug reports should be sent to max500-bugs@umich.edu.

CAVEATS AND GENERAL LIMITATIONS

   maX.500 does not support modification of "photo" (fax), "jpegPhoto",
   or "audio" attributes.  Versions of maX.500 before 2.1 did not
   support a fully functional browse facility.

INTERNETWORKING ENVIRONMENT

   maX.500 is an LDAP client, and as such is uses TCP to communicate
   with the LDAP server.  Apple's MacTCP control panel or Open Transport
   TCP/IP networking is required.

HARDWARE PLATFORMS

   maX.500 runs on Apple Macintosh Plus or later Macintosh computers,
   including PowerMacs. It requires 600K of free RAM.

SOFTWARE PLATFORMS

   maX.500 requires Apple System Software 6.0.5 or later (System 7
   preferred) and MacTCP 1.1 or later (2.0.6 preferred).  maX.500 2.1,
   which is currently in beta test, will run natively on the PowerMac
   and use the native Open Transport networking interface if it is
   installed.

        DIB on a PC Windows workstation.  The NSDS GUI Viewer is
        supported by a persistent server process on the Tandem
        NonStop Kernel.  The  GUI Viewer allows a directory entry and
        a complete set of attributes and values to be inserted
        anywhere in the directory tree (DIT), to be deleted or
        changed, read or searched based on distinguished name
        components, with or without wild-card.

      * NSDS SCRIPTOR allows customers to explore features of the XDS
        programmatic interface in advance of writing their XOM/XDS
        application. NSDS SCRIPTOR is a menu-driven batch interface
        to XDS functions.

      * A BulkUnload/BulkLoad utility allows a branch of the DIB to
        be dumped to an editable flat file and restored from that
        file.  The flat file can be modified before being bulk-loaded
        into a DIB which may conform to a different schema
        definition.

      * Support for the LDAP protocol.

      * Messaging-Based Directory Query (MDQ) provides a text-based
        query interface to the directory from an X.400 messaging
        system, such as Tandem OSI/MHS, via the XAPIA compliant GPI
        interface.
