Red Hat 8.1 - Manual (Page 13)

Table 2.1. Directory Server LDIF Configuration Files
Configuration Filename Purpose
dse.ldif Contains front-end Directory Specific Entries
created by the directory at server startup. These
include the Root DSE ("") and the contents of
cn=config and cn=m onitor (ACIs only).
00core.ldif Contains only those schema definitions
necessary for starting the server with the bare
minimum feature set (no user schema, no schema
for any non-core features). The rest of the
schema used by users, features, and applications
is found in 01common.ldif and the other
schema files. Do not modify this file.
01common.ldif Contains LDAPv3 standard operational schema,
such as subschemaSubentry, LDAPv3
standard user and organization schema defined
in RFC 2256 (based on X.520/X.521),
inetOrgPerson and other widely-used
attributes, and the operational attributes used by
Directory Server configuration. Modifying this file
causes interoperability problems. User-defined
attributes should be added through the Directory
Server Console.
05rfc2247.ldif Schema from RFC 2247 and related pilot schema,
from "Using Domains in LDAP/X500
Distinguished Names."
05rfc2927.ldif Schema from RFC 2927, "MIME Directory Profile
for LDAP Schema." Contains the ldapSchemas
operational attribute required for the attribute to
show up in the subschema subentry.
10presence.ldif Legacy. Schema for instant messaging presence
(online) information; the file lists the default object
classes with the allowed attributes that must be
added to a user's entry in order for instant-
messaging presence information to be available
for that user.
10rfc2307.ldif Schema from RFC 2307, "An Approach for Using
LDAP as a Network Information Service." This
may be superseded by 10rfc2307bis, the new
version of rfc2307, when that schema becomes
available.
20subscriber.ldif Contains new schema elements and the Nortel
subscriber interoperability specification. Also
contains the adminRole and memberOf attributes
and inetAdmin object class, previously stored
in the 50ns-delegated-admin.ldif file.
25java-object.ldif Schema from RFC 2713, "Schema for
Representing Java® Objects in an LDAP
Directory."
28pilot.ldif Contains pilot directory schema from RFC 1274,
which is no longer recommended for new
deployments. Future RFCs which succeed RFC
1274 may deprecate some or all of
28pilot.ldif attribute types and classes.
30ns-common.ldif Schema that contains objects classes and
attributes common to the Directory Server
Console framework.
50ns-admin.ldif Schema used by Red Hat Administration Server.
50ns-certificate.ldif Schema for Red Hat Certificate Management
System.
50ns-directory.ldif Contains additional configuration schema used by
Directory Server 4.12 and earlier versions of the
directory, which is no longer applicable to current
releases of Directory Server. This schema is
required for replicating between Directory Server
4.12 and current releases.
50ns-mail.ldif Schema used by Netscape Messaging Server to
define mail users and mail groups.
50ns-value.ldif Schema for servers' value item attributes.
