Attribute Names

Every attribute has a name.

You can also define one or more LDAP names for each attribute. The LDAP name defaults to the attribute name, so typically you need to define only the LDAP name when it is different from the attribute name.

For example, when you define an attribute using the following command, you can use organizationName or the shorter LDAP name o in other commands that need to reference the attribute:

set attribute (2.5.4.10) = {
name		= organizationName
ldap-names	= o
syntax		= caseIgnoreString
};
