Re: dc question

[marc.bigler@day.com]

Hello,

First I would like to thank you all for your answers, they are of great
help.

Now so if I understood the role of the dc correctly in that case, it should
be setted to the last dc part of the dn ? For example:

dn: dc=blabla, dc=example, dc=com
objectclass: dcObject
objectclass: organization
o: Example company Ltd.
dc: blabla

is that correct ?

Regards
Marc

I'm just guessing but it is possibly b/c the dc attribute it required
for an objectclass of type dcObject, just like the o attribute is
required for the objectclass of type organization
