hasSubordinates



Hello,
  X.501 (2000, chapter 14.4.4) defines an operational attribute
"hasSubordinates".

Will this operational attribute also be defined by one of the LDAP-bis RFCs?
RFC2252 (5.1 Standard Operational Attributes) defines createTimeStamp
etc., but not hasSubordinates.

Best regards,  Jochen Keutel.

from X.501:

14.4.4 Has Subordinates operational attribute

The hasSubordinates operational attribute indicates whether any
subordinate entries exist below the entry holding this
attribute. A value of TRUE indicates that subordinates may exist.
A value of FALSE indicates that no subordinates exist.
If this attribute is absent, no information is provided about
the existence of subordinate entries. The attribute will
ordinarily disclose the existence of subordinates even if the
immediate subordinates are hidden by access controls ­ to
prevent disclosure of the existence of subordinates the
operational attribute itself shall be protected by access controls.
