I know this works in 389-ds-base 1.2.6 - for example, see 00core.ldif - there are several examples of attribute types which just specify the SUP and not the syntax: attributeTypes: ( 2.5.4.43 NAME 'initials' SUP name X-ORIGIN 'RFC 4519' ) attributeTypes: ( 2.5.4.31 NAME 'member' SUP distinguishedName X-ORIGIN 'RFC 4519' ) > > Brian LaMere > ------------------------------------------------------------------------ > > -- > 389 users mailing list > 389-users at lists.fedoraproject.org > https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/389-users
