So, I screwed up and left the word "ldap" out of the title of this one. Review and comments appreciated. Jim >>> <Internet-Drafts@ietf.org> 11/20/01 05:12AM >>> A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : Dynamic Groups for LDAPV3 Author(s) : S. Haripriya et al. Filename : draft-haripriya-dynamicgroup-00.txt Pages : 11 Date : 19-Nov-01 This draft describes the requirements, semantics, schema elements, and operations needed for a dynamic group feature in LDAP. A dynamic group is defined here as a group object with a membership list of distinguished names that is dynamically generated using LDAP search criteria. The dynamic membership list may then be interrogated by LDAP search and compare operations, and be used to identify a group of access control subjects. This feature eliminates a huge amount of the administrative effort required today for maintaining group memberships and role-based operations in large enterprises. A URL for this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-haripriya-dynamicgroup-00.txt To remove yourself from the IETF Announcement list, send a message to ietf-announce-request with the word unsubscribe in the body of the message. Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then "get draft-haripriya-dynamicgroup-00.txt". A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-haripriya-dynamicgroup-00.txt". NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE" command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on how to manipulate these messages. Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the Internet-Draft.
