Title : LDAP: Dynamic Groups for LDAPV3
Author(s) : S. Haripriya et al.
Filename : draft-haripriya-dynamicgroup-01.txt
Pages : 10
Date : 2003-3-7
This draft describes the requirements, semantics, schema elements, and
operations needed for a dynamic group feature in LDAP. A dynamic group
is defined here as a group object with a membership list of
distinguished names that is dynamically generated using LDAP search
criteria. The dynamic membership list may then be interrogated by LDAP
search and compare operations, and be used to identify a group of
access control subjects. This feature eliminates a huge amount of the
administrative effort required today for maintaining group memberships
and role-based operations in large enterprises.

In the body type:

NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in
MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this
feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE"
command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or
a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers
exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with
"multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split
up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on
how to manipulate these messages.
Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader
implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the
Internet-Draft.
