Hi!

I''ve installed Fedora DS 1.1 for x86_64 and am currently extending my
schema. I got some schema ldif files converted from OpenLDAP format.

I've placed the converted schema LDIFs in
/etc/dirsrv/my_instance_name/schema/, and restarted the dirsrv service.

The problem is that FDS reject a quite common attribute syntax:

[03/Mar/2008:17:47:54 +0100] dse - The entry cn=schema in file
/etc/dirsrv/my_instance_name/schema/75phpgwcontact.ldif is invalid,
error code 21 (Invalid syntax) - attribute type phpgwContactOwner:
Unknown attribute syntax OID "1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.36"
[03/Mar/2008:17:47:54 +0100] dse - Please edit the file to correct the
reported problems and then restart the server.


This is very strange, considering that 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.36
(Numeric String) is a quite common attribute syntax and it's present in
Netscape's own RFC 2252, section 6.23:
It's not really Netscape's own RFC although some of the authors were Netscape employees.
http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2252.html

==============================
6.23. Numeric String

( 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.36 DESC 'Numeric String' )

The encoding of a string in this syntax is the string value itself.
Example:

1997
==============================

Surely it can't  be that Netscape/Fedora Directory Server doesn't
support it?

It can be and it is. Fedora DS does not support Numaric String. Please file a bug requesting the addition of this feature. In the meantime, just use a case insensitive string syntax.
