LDIF and structural objectclasses



Hi there,


if been reading RFC2849 for some time now, and I'm wondering about some things.

1) Why are userpassword attributes always encoded in base64 in
OpenLDAP2.x.x? e.g. "{crypt}c4jHzc08CN.ug" is a valid SAFE-STRING, but
is encoded anyways.

2) I'm not sure that I'm understanding that '*', '1*' and '0*1' thingy
correctly. AFAICT '*' means as many as wanted and '1*' means as many as
wanted but at least one. But WTF is '0*1'?

3) FAQ-O-Matic says "Object class violation (65)" with "additional info:
invalid structural object class chain (qmailuser/person)" means "Two or
more structural objectClass values listed are not related."
Why's that an error actually? (And since when, have never seen this so far.)



TIA,
daniel
