Default LDAP Schema

Schemas are definitions describing what types of information can be stored as entries in an LDAP directory. To support LDAP naming clients, the directory server's schema might need to be extended. Detailed information about IETF and Solaris specific schemas is included in Chapter 14, LDAP General Reference (Reference). The various RFCs can also be accessed on the IETF Web site http://www.ietf.org.
