NDS objects and properties standards

NDS objects and properties standards

This topic provides you with guidelines and samples for creating a standards document for objects in a NetWare® Directory Services(TM) (NDS(TM)) database.

Using a consistent naming standard makes current and future implementation of NDS easier and more efficient. A naming standard helps ensure that the Directory objects you create are intuitive and useful to users and groups on your network.

An effective naming standard document includes a list of objects to be implemented, the format of each property value, and the intended use of each property.

There is no preset naming standard. Different organizations can adopt different naming standards based on both their requirements and their existing configurations.

The naming standard in this topic is offered as an example that works well for any organization, regardless of size, but that can be modified and adjusted to better meet the requirements of individual organizations.
