LDAP rfc2307bis.schema or nis.schema?

Hi guys,

we are implementing new ldap in our organization exclusively for Linux authentication purposes. As we are new to the subject, I would appreciate help regarding which schema to use to create group of users and accounts / passwords entries? I see both schemas listed in subject above have all required object classes and attributes, but apparently nis schema needs "hack" to be able to use groupsOfNames object class. Also apparently rfc2307bis is obsolete but still in use?! Are there any compatibility issues using one or the other? Any advise which one to use, any pros or cons?



Much appreciated


Kind Regards

PST2LDIF(1)						  libpst Utilities - Version 0.6					       PST2LDIF(1)

NAME
pst2ldif - extract contacts from a MS Outlook .pst file in .ldif format SYNOPSIS
pst2ldif [-V] [-b ldap-base] [-c class] [-d debug-file] [-l extra-line] [-o] [-h] pstfilename OPTIONS
-V Show program version. Subsequent options are then ignored. -b ldap-base Sets the ldap base value used in the dn records. You probably want to use something like "o=organization, c=US". -c class Sets the objectClass values for the contact items. This class needs to be defined in the schema used by your LDAP server, and at a minimum it must contain the ldap attributes given below. This option may be specified multiple times to generate entries with multiple object classes. -d debug-file Specify name of debug log file. The log file is now an ascii file, instead of the binary file used in previous versions. -l extra-line Specify an extra line to be added to each ldap entry. This option may be specified multiple times to add multiple lines to each ldap entry. -o Use the old ldap schema, rather than the default new ldap schema. The old schema generates multiple postalAddress attributes for a single entry. The new schema generates a single postalAddress (and homePostalAddress when available) attribute with $ delimiters as specified in RFC4517. Using the old schema also generates two extra leading entries, one for "dn:ldap base", and one for "dn: cn=root, ldap base". -h Show summary of options. Subsequent options are then ignored. DESCRIPTION
pst2ldif reads the contact information from a MS Outlook .pst file and produces a .ldif file that may be used to import those contacts into an LDAP database. The following ldap attributes are generated for the old ldap schema: cn givenName sn personalTitle company mail postalAddress l st postalCode c homePhone telephoneNumber facsimileTelephoneNumber mobile description The following attributes are generated for the new ldap schema: cn givenName sn title o mail postalAddress homePostalAddress l st postalCode c homePhone telephoneNumber facsimileTelephoneNumber mobile description labeledURI COPYRIGHT
