Re: FW: Result Code for LDAP Controls Draft <draft-armijo-ldap-control-error-01.txt>



Let's use 22 (decimal) in the controlError draft for now, and we'll push the change into 2251bis.

As suggested below I would like to get a result code number reserved for
the controlError draft before I resubmit it and go through a last call.
Is there a particular process to follow here or should I just choose one
and ask you to enter it into your revision of 2251?  This is in section
4.1.10 as part of the LDAPResult construct.

Thanks,
Asaf

There is no IANA registry for LDAP error numbers.  Instead, the LDAP
errors are recorded in the update to RFC 2251 currently being progressed
in the 
LDAPBIS working group as draft-sermersheim-ldapbis-rfc2251-00.txt

In that draft Jim has written regarding the result code:

   <Editor's Note: This section should be reconciled with the result
   codes draft and moved to an appendix. Thus, not modified at this
   time>

Hote that I think he is referring there to expired
draft-just-ldapv3-rescodes. Thus I recommend talking with Jim
Sermersheim and the LDAPBIS working group chairs about how this
reconciliation will happen and how the error code for LDAP control
indication should be incorporated.

Hlpe this helps,
