While working with OpenLDAP, I've observed something strange. I am not
sure if this is the anticipated behaviour. Let us say we have two
attributes 'name' and 'middleName' and the former is the superior of the
latter i.e.

attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.74 NAME 'middleName' SUP name )

Now let us assume that the value of the attribute 'middleName' for a
particular dn is 'Konda'. Then performing a search on the basedn with
the filter "(name=Konda)" returns that particular dn. Is this a bug or
anticipated behaviour?

This works as intended. If you don't want that then don't use SUP name.

Ciao, Michael.
