    Hi,

      
      I have several questions about syntax and attributes, hope you can
      help me.

      
      - Why the attribute mail in DS is case sensitive?? Is there any
      problem changing it to non case sensitive? If there is no problem,
      how can I modify it?

    
    The syntax of mail is IA5 String.

    
    If you have 

    mail: TUser0@xxxxxxxxxxx

    
    then this command line returns the expected result.  That is, not
    case sensitive.

    ldapsearch [...] -b 'dc=example,dc=com'
      "(mail=tuser0@xxxxxxxxxxx)" mail

      mail: TUser0@xxxxxxxxxxx

    
      - I have a problem whit the syntax of the nsViewFilter attribute,
      the value of the attribute is: (ou=*ou=D.
      PERIÓDICO,o=xxxxx,dc=xxxx,dc=xxxx). I guess the problem is the
      character "Ó" but if it is possible to create the ou with special
      characters, should be possible create a nsViewFilter with special
      characters to??? (389DS 1.2.5)

    
    Currently, the syntax of nsViewFilter is IA5 String, which does not
    allow non-ascii characters.

    attributeTypes: ( 2.16.840.1.113730.3.1.3023 NAME 'nsViewFilter'
    DESC 'Netscape defined attribute type' SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26
    X-ORIGIN 'Netscape Directory Server' )

    
    Indeed, it'd be a needless restriction for nsViewFilter.  Please
    open a ticket at https://fedorahosted.org/389/newticket.

    
    In the meantime, could you replace 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26
    with 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15, and try?

    
      - I have read about the attribute nsslapd-allidsthreshold and its
      use in older versions. I have 389DS 1.2.5, have I to use it or it
      is deprecated??? I have search this parameters in my ldap servers
      and someones have it, and others don't, maybe this behaviour is
      because of actualizations of the DS but I would like to know if in
      1.2.5 is needed or if i can delete it.

    
    nsslapd-allidsthreshold is replaced with nsslapd-idlistscanlimit in
    389-ds-base.  Not like nsslapd-allidsthreshold,
    nsslapd-idlistscanlimit is used just by the search operation and you
    can dynamically change the value.  If the IDlist length is larger
    than the nsslapd-idlistscanlimit value, DS gives up generating the
    IDlist and uses ALLID, which scans all the entries in the primary
    database.

    
      Thank you in advance.

      
      Moses.
