  A Revised Catalog of Available X.500 Implementations

Status of this Memo

 This	memo provides information for the Internet community.  This memo
 does	not specify an Internet	standard of any	kind.  Distribution of
 this	memo is	unlimited.

Abstract

 This	document is the	result of a survey that	gathered new or	updated
 descriptions	of currently available implementations of X.500,
 including commercial	products and openly available offerings. This
 document is a revision of RFC 1292. We contacted each contributor in
 RFC 1292 and	requested an update and	published the survey template in
 several mailing lists and obtained new product descriptions.
 This	document contains detailed description of twenty six (26) X.500
 implementations - DSAs, DUAs, and DUA interfaces.

1. Introduction

 This	document catalogs currently available implementations of X.500,
 including commercial	products and openly available offerings.  For
 the purposes	of this	survey,	we classify X.500 products as,
 DSA
A DSA is an OSI	application process that provides the Directory
functionality,
 DUA
A DUA is an OSI	application process that represents a user in
accessing the Directory	and uses the DAP to communicate	with a
DSA, and
 DUA Interface
A DUA Interface	is an application process that represents a user
in accessing the Directory using either	DAP but	supporting only
a subset of the	DAP functionality or a protocol	different from
DAP to communicate with	a DSA or DUA.

IDS Working Group [Page 1] RFC 1632 X.500 Catalog May 1994

 Section 2 of	this document contains a listing of implementations
 cross referenced by keyword.	 This list should aid in identifying
 implementations that	meet your criteria.
 To compile this catalog, the	IDS Working Group solicited input from
 the X.500 community by surveying several Internet mailing lists,
 including:  iso@nic.ddn.mil,	isode@nic.ddn.mil, osi-ds@cs.ucl.ac.uk,
 and ietf-ids@umich.edu. We also contacted many people by telephone
 and sent the	template to several individuals	and mailed a floppy disk
 containing the survey template to a person who did not have Internet
 access.
 Readers are encouraged to submit comments regarding both the	form and
 content  of	this  memo.  New submissions are welcome.  Please direct
 input to  the  Integrated  Directory	 Services  (IDS)  Working  Group
 (ietf-ids@umich.edu)	 or  to	 the editors.  IDS will	produce	new ver-
 sions of this document when a sufficient number of changes have  been
 received.  This will	be determined by the IDS chairpersons.

1.1 Purpose

 The Internet	has experienced	a steady growth	in X.500 piloting
 activities.	This document hopes to provide an easily accessible
 source of information on X.500 implementations for those who	wish to
 consider X.500 technology for deploying a Directory service.

1.2 Scope

 This	document contains descriptions of both free and	commercial X.500
 implementations.  It	does not provide instructions on how to	install,
 run,	or manage these	implementations.  The descriptions and indices
 are provided	to make	the readers aware of available options and thus
 enable more informed	choices.

1.3 Disclaimer

 Implementation descriptions were written by implementors and	vendors,
 and not by the editors. We worked with the description authors to
 ensure uniformity and readability, but can not guarantee the	accuracy
 or completeness of the descriptions,	or the stability of the
 implementations.

1.4 Overview

 Section 1 contains introductory information.
 Section 2 contains a	list of	keywords, their	definitions, and a cross
 reference of	the X.500 implementations by these keywords.

IDS Working Group [Page 2] RFC 1632 X.500 Catalog May 1994

 Section 3 contains the X.500	implementation descriptions.
 Section 4 has a list	of references.
 Section 6 lists the editors'	addresses.

1.5 Acknowledgments

 The creation	of this	catalog	would not have been possible without the
 efforts of the description authors and the members of the IDS Working
 Group.  Our special thanks to the editors of	RFC 1292, Ruth Lang and
 Russ	Wright who helped us get started and made key suggestions that
 enabled us to learn from their experience. We also acknowledge and
 appreciate the efforts of Ken Rossen	in obtaining six descriptions.

2. Keywords

 Keywords are	abbreviated attributes of the X.500 implementations.
 The list of keywords	defined	below was derived from the
 implementation descriptions themselves.  Implementations were indexed
 by a	keyword	either as a result of: (1) explicit, not implied,
 reference to	a particular capability	in the implementation
 description text, or	(2) input from the implementation description
 author(s).

2.1 Keyword Definitions

 This	section	contains keyword definitions.  They have been organized
 and grouped by functional category.	The definitions	are ordered
 first alphabetically	by keyword category, and second	alphabetically
 by implementation name within keyword category.

NAME

 X500-DS
 X500-DUA
 Bull	S.A.

KEYWORDS

 API,	Bull, CLNS, Commercially Available, DSA/DUA, OSI Transport,
 RFC-1006, X.25

ABSTRACT

 X500-DS and X500-DUA	are integral part of the large Bull OSI	offer.
 Although based on the DCE/GDS (Distributed Computing
 Environment/Global Directory	Service) of OSF, these two products may
 be installed	and used without DCE environment.  X500-DS is designed
 to implement	both the DUA and the DSA functions, whilst X500-DUA only
 provides the	DUA functions.
 The X500-DUA	package	contains:
  1. The standards APIs XOM (X/Open OSI-Abstract-Data Manipulation API)

and XDS (X/Open Directory Service API) for the development of

   portable applications,
 - A core DUA	to translate all user's	requests (bind,	read, list,
   compare, modify, modifyRDN, search, add, remove, unbind ...) into
   the DAP protocol used for communication with distant DSAs,
 - The OSI standard protocols	(ASN.1,	ROSE, ACSE, Presentation and
   Session) for communication	with the distant DSAs. The interface
   with the low layers of the	stack being XTI. RFC-1006 is supported
   under XTI or the Session,
 - A DUA Cache to improve performances when accessing	remote DSAs,
 - A management application for configuration	of the product,
   controlling the operations	and managing logs and traces,
 - A user application	for the	manipulations of the database entries.
 The X500-DS package contains:
  1. All components of the X500-DUA,
  2. A core DSA to process all requests received from distant DUAs

through DAP protocol or from distant DSAs through DSP protocol.

   It	supports the referral, chained and multi-casting modes of
   operation,	access control lists, simple authentication,
   management	of knowledge information (for distribution, shadows and
   copies of sub-trees),

IDS Working Group [Page 17] RFC 1632 X.500 Catalog Bull S.A.

  1. A management application for managing the schema information

(creation, deletion and modification of object classes and of

   attribute types, management of the	rules of the DIT),
 - A C-ISAM database.

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

 Compliant with EWOS and OIW Agreements
 Strong authentication in X.509 is not yet implemented. (Password
 scheme is currently used.)
 Consists of both DUA	and DSA	implementation according to the	88 CCITT
 X.500 and ISO 9594 standard.	The X/Open standard XDS	and XOM
 interface libraries are also	provided.  When	the product is installed
 with	the DCE	environment, XDS and XOM interfaces are	also used to
 access DCE/CDS (Local Cell Directory	Service) transparently.	A GDA

KEYWORDS

 API,	Available via FTP, DSA/DUA, Free, Limited Functionality,
 Multiple Vendor Platforms, Needs ISODE, OSI Transport, RFC-1006, Sun,

ABSTRACT

 The implementation consists of a set	DUA library routines, a	terminal
 interface, and a DSA. The implementation was	developed in C on Sun
 SPARCstations under SunOS 4.1.1. All	underlying services are	provided
 by the ISODE	development package. The development package is	also
 used	for encoding and decoding ASN.1	data as	well as	for other data
 manipulation	services. Using	the ISODE package the implementation can
 be run over both TCP/IP and OSI protocols.
 The DSA provides full support for both DAP and DSP protocols,
 conformant with ISO 9594 / CCITT X.500 standards. The DIB is
 maintained using a locally developed	relational database system. The
 interface to	the database system consists of	a set of sql-like C
 functions.  These are designed to allow straightforward replacement
 of the local	database system	with a more powerful commercial	system.
 To achieve better performance several options are supported that
 permit loading of selected portions of the database in core.	When
 these options are selected data can be retrieved more quickly from in
 core	tables;	all modifications to the DIB are directly reflected in
 the in core tables and the database.

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

 Custos is fully compliant with the 1988 Standard with the following
 omissions:
  1. Search request decomposition
  2. Modify Entry operation
  3. Modify RDN operation
  4. Abandon operation
  5. Strong Authentication
  6. Schema checking

CAVEATS and GENERAL LIMITATIONS

 No limitations on file sizes, etc. The only side effects to creating
 large files should be in the	area of	performance. Specifically,
 optimization	requires loading parts of the DIB in core so greater
 memory requirements will be necessary for achieving better
 performance with a large database. Any platform the implementation
 can be ported to (generally any platform ISODE can be ported	to)
 should support all features.

INTERNETWORKING ENVIRONMENT

 RFC-1006; TP4/CLNP (SunLinkOSI) over	802 and	X.25 (SunLink X.25).

HARDWARE PLATFORMS

 It's	only been run on Sun 3 and SPARC, but there are	no known reasons
 why it shouldn't run	on any hardware	running	the ISODE software.

IDS Working Group [Page 24] RFC 1632 X.500 Catalog Custos

SOFTWARE PLATFORMS

 It requires UNIX and	the ISODE software package. It's been developed
 and tested with ISODE version 7.0 and Sun OS	version	4.1.1. Uses a
 locally developed relational	DBMS that should be easily replaceable
 with	commercially available relational systems.

AVAILABILITY

 Custos, the NIST implementation of X.500, the OSI Directory,	is
 available for anonymous ftp from osi.ncsl.nist.gov (129.6.48.100)
 using the convention	(user name = anonymous,	password = ident). The
 software is available in two	forms: a tar file and a	compressed tar
 file.
    ./pub/directory/CustosRel_0.2.tar
    ./pub/directory/CustosRel_0.2.tar.Z
 Note: permissions on	the directory ./pub/directory are set so that
 you will be able to "get" files whose names you can provide.	However,
 you will not	be able	to "ls"	the contents of	the directory.

ABSTRACT

 DE (Directory Enquiries) is intended	to be a	simple-to-use DUA
 interface, suitable for the naive user, and suitable	for running as a
 public access dua.  it will work on any terminal.  The user is
 presented with a series of (verbose)	prompts	asking for person's
 name; department; organization; country.  There is extensive	on-line
 help.  The matching algorithms are such that	near matches are
 presented to	the user before	less good matches.
 A lot of development	has been done on the interface since it	was
 first described in RFC1292.	The most significant enhancement has
 been	to add power searching - this allows a user to search for an
 entry even when they	do not know the	name of	the organisation in
 which the person works - you	still have to specify the country.  DE
 now provides	UFN style searching.  It is now	possible to search
 locality entries.  DE now uses slightly different search algorithms
 depending on	whether	it is accessing	part of	the Directory mastered
 by a	Quipu DSA - Quipu DSAs tend to use lots	of replication and so
 encourage searching.	 An experimental feature is intended to	give the
 user	more feedback on the likely response time to a query - DE
 maintains a database	of past	information availability and DSA
 responsiveness.  Translations exist into at least 4 different
 languages.
 DE runs over	ISODE DAP and University of Michigan LDAP.  There is a
 version of DE, called DOS-DE, which has been	ported to DOS, and this
 uses	LDAP.
 DE was funded by the	COSINE PARADISE	project, and DE	is used	as the
 PARADISE public access dua.	You can	test the software by telnet to
 128.86.8.56 and logging in as dua --	no password required.

 Agent (DSA).
 The DUA is the interface between the	OSI Directory and those	users
 wishing access to the Directory's information. Users	make their
 requests through the	DUA. When forwarding user's requests to	the OSI
 Directory, the protocol used	is known as the	Directory Access
 Protocol (DAP).
 The DSA will	negotiate with other, remote DSAs to obtain requested
 information or to update remote DIBs. DSAs use the Directory	System
 Protocol (DSP) to forward and answer	these requests.	The DSA	supports
 chaining and	referrals.

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

 All X.500 1988 operations are supported along with all Object Classes
 specified in	X.521 and all Attribute	Types specified	in X.520.
 Implementation plans	include	upgrades to support the	1992 extensions
 to X.500 in 1994. Please check with OSIware / Infonet Software

ABSTRACT

 DOS-DE (DOS Directory Enquiries) is intended	to be a	simple-to-use
 DUA interface suitable for the naive	user.  It is an	MS-DOS port of
 the standard	UNIX DE	implementation - see the entry on DE for full
 details.  (All of the features DE are supported apart from the
 experimental	`Quality of Service' code).
 The user is presented with a	series of (verbose) prompts asking for
 person's name; department; organization; country.  There is extensive
 on-line help.  The matching algorithms are such that	near matches are
 presented to	the user before	less good matches.  `Power searching' is
 also	available - this allows	a user to search for an	entry even when
 they	do not know the	name of	the organisation in which the person
 works - you still have to specify the country.  DOS-DE provides UFN
 style searching.  It	is also	possible to search locality entries.
 DOS-DE uses slightly	different search algorithms depending on whether
 it is accessing part	of the Directory mastered by a Quipu DSA - Quipu
 DSAs	tend to	use lots of replication	and so encourage searching.
 DOS-DE runs over the	University of Michigan LDAP.
 DE was funded by the	COSINE PARADISE	project.  DOS-DE was developed
 by Andy Powell at the University of Bath.

ABSTRACT

 LDAP	is the Lightweight Directory Access Protocol.  It gives	X.500
 access to platforms that have only TCP/IP access, using simplified
 BER encoding	of many	X.500 data elements.  LDAP is currently	a
 proposed Internet Standard.	The LDAP server	is an intermediate
 protocol server that	communicates with Internet clients on one side
 using the simple TCP-based LDAP protocol and	an X.500 DSA on	the
 other side using the	Directory Access Protocol (DAP).  A subset of
 the X.500 DAP is exported to	the clients through the	LDAP protocol.
 The U-M LDAP	distribution contains the following components:
  1. LDAP server
  2. LDAP client library, including both synchronous and asynchronous APIs
  3. Lightweight BER library, including an API that supports

a printf/scanf-like interface

  1. Various LDAP client programs, including a finger daemon (xfingerd),

gopher to X.500 gateway (go500gw), command-line DUA (ud), e-mail

   query server (rcpt500), and an X.500 mailer (mail500)

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

 The U-M LDAP	distribution is	a complete implementation of the LDAP
 protocol.  The LDAP protocol	does not support access	to all X.500
 features and	operations.  The operations supported are bind,	search,
 compare, add, delete, modify, modify	RDN, and abandon.  Note	that
 read	and list operations can	be emulated using the search operation.
 Size	and time limits	may be specified, as may alias dereferencing and
 searching, but all X.500 service controls are not supported.

IDS Working Group [Page 48] RFC 1632 X.500 Catalog Univ. of Mich. LDAP Imple.

CONFORMANCE WITH PROPOSED INTERNET STANDARDS

 Compliant with [RFC 1485], [RFC 1487], and [RFC 1274].

CONSISTENCE WITH INFORMATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RFCs

 Preliminary support is included for [RFC 1484].

INTEROPERABILITY

 The current implementation of the LDAP server is known to work with
 the QUIPU DSA and DAP library.

PILOT CONNECTIVITY

 DUA connectivity should be possible to all pilots, though only
 AARNET, PARADISE, and PSI White Pages Project have actually been
 tried.

BUGS

 Bug reports should be sent to bug-ldap@umich.edu.

CAVEATS and GENERAL LIMITATIONS

 None, aside from those mentioned above under	completeness.

INTERNETWORKING ENVIRONMENT

 LDAP	clients	use TCP	to communicate with the	LDAP server.  The LDAP
 server normally uses	RFC 1006 with TCP/IP to	communicate with the
 DSA,	though any other transport mechanism for DSA communication
 supported by	ISODE should be	possible.

HARDWARE PLATFORMS

 The LDAP server is known to run on Sun 3 and	Sun 4 platforms	DEC's,
 HP's, and RS	6000's.	 The LDAP client libraries and some clients have
 been	ported to the Macintosh	and the	PC.

SOFTWARE PLATFORMS

 The LDAP server and clients are known to run	under and SunOS	4.1.x,
 ULTRIX, HP-UX, and AIX.  The	LDAP client libraries also work	under
 Macintosh System 6.0	or higher and MS-DOS 5.0.

ABSTRACT

 The NASA QuickMail/X.500 Interface program is a program which
 translates QuickMail	name service requests into X.500 requests and
 returns the results from the	DSA to the QuickMail user.  This system
 allows QuickMail users  the ability to find non-QuickMail users' or
 non-local QuickMail users' addresses, while retaining the normal
 QuickMail lookup interface.	The program speaks QuickMail name
 service protocol on one side, and DAP on the	other.

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

ABSTRACT

 This	implementation is a source release derived from	the earlier
 openly available version of QUIPU, and will be used as base
 technology for products by a	number of vendors. The release comprises
 of a	DSA, and a number of sample DUAs which may be used in
 conjunction with the	DSA.

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

 The DSA is aligned to the 1988 ISO IS and the NIST OIW Directory
 Implementors	Guide Version 1, with the following exceptions:
  1. Strong authentication is not implemented (but hooks are

provided for use with two packages).

  1. QUIPU does not enforce the bounds constraints on attributes,

filters or APDU size.

  1. T.61 string formatting characters are not rejected.
  2. If a DN is supplied with no password in an unprotected simple bind,

QUIPU does not always check to see if the DN exists. If the DSA

   connected to can say authoritatively the DN does not exist, the
   association is rejected. However, if a chain operation is required
   to	check the DN, the bind IS allowed.
 - When comparing attributes of UTCtime syntax, if the seconds field
   is	omitted, QUIPU does not	perform	the match correctly (i.e., the
   seconds field in the attribute values should be ignored, but are
   not).
 - QUIPU always supplies the optional	Chaining argument
   "originator" even if the CommonArgument "requestor" is used.
 - QUIPU always supplies the optional	Chaining argument "target"
   even if the base object in	the DAP	arguments is the same.
 - The object	class "without an assigned object identifier" is
   not recognised unless the "alias" object class is also present.
 - Non Specific Subordinate References are never followed by a QUIPU
   DSA, but they are passed on correctly to the client if generated.

ABSTRACT

 The Traxis Enterprise Directory has multiple	components in a	three
 layer architecture. The individual components of the	Traxis family
 are building	blocks which can be assembled in a flexible, modular way
 to build complex systems.
 At the enterprise level, is a distributed directory stored and
 managed by Traxis Directory Engines (TDEs). At the workgroup	level
 Traxis Directory Hubs (TDHs)	provide	the means to integrate and
 connect Traxis Directory Engines to the wide	variety	of real	world
 applications	and systems which prevail in network environments. The
 TDE and the TDH support the myriad of client	applications, including
 messaging and business applications,	which require services from the
 Traxis directory.
 At the desktop level, the Traxis Desktop Client (TDC) provides a
 common set of facilities which simplify and enable communications,
 object manipulation,	and results management as required between the
 Traxis Directory Hub	and applications. These	capabilities, which
 include full	access and management of the directory,	are provided to
 applications	through	XDS++, the Traxis object oriented API. The
 Traxis Desktop Client also supports industry	standard client	software
 interfaces such as Microsoft	MAPI, Apple OCE, CMC and VIM, through
 Compatibility Modules which map the standard	API into XDS++.	Through
 these APIs the Traxis Desktop Client	supports applications of all
 kinds on PC,	Macintosh, and UNIX systems.
 Angeli supplied Traxis applications include the Traxis Administrative
 Console management station, the Traxis Global Browser general
 directory tool, the Traxis Operator Assistance high-speed look-up,
 the Traxis Data Base	Gateway, the Traxis Import Export Utility and
 more.
 The Traxis Directory	Engine includes	an X.500 DSA. The Traxis
 Directory Hub includes an X.500 DUA.

 Vendor Platforms, OpenLook, RFC-1006, RFC-1274, RFC-1277, RFC-1278,
 RFC-1279, Sequent, Sun, Tandem, UNIX, X.25

ABSTRACT

 UCOM.X 500 includes a Directory System Agent	(DSA), various directory
 access APIs and Directory User Agents (DUAs). UCOM.X	500 is a product
 based on PIZARRO, the research prototype developed at INRIA by
 Christian Huitema's team, and commercialized	by TS-E3X, a member of
 the France Telecom group.
 Characteristics of the DSA are:
  1. The DAP and DSP protocols are provided conformant with X.500 (88).
  2. The DIB is maintained in ASN.1 encoded format in the Unix file

system. Utilities are provided to load and dump the DIB from and

   to	ASCII text files.
 - The DIT structure is held in main memory. Frequently used attributes
   may be held in inverted tables in memory to speed up searches.
 - Knowledge management: knowledge on	managed	domains	is stored in
   UCOM.X specific attributes	of the DSA entries.
 - Schema: The X.500 (88), X.400 (88)	and most of the	Cosine and
   Internet Schema are supported. Object class and attribute
   definitions are enforced.	Users may define their own.
 - Simple authentication is provided;	strong authentication and
   signed operations are being tested	operationally through TS-E3X's
   participation in PASSWORD,	a VALUE	project	with aim to pilot a
   European security infrastructure for network applications.
 - Access control: private mechanisms	are provided to	allow access
   control lists to be specified for parts of	the DIT, to control
   modifications, and	to specify access restrictions on attributes.
 - Management: a UCOM.X DSA object has been defined to allow
   operational parameters of the DSA to be managed via DAP.
   Administration utilities are provided to, e.g., generate usage
   statistics	and periodically update	the database from various data
   sources including a knowledge discovery tool.
 The product offers a	C language API conformant to X/Open's X/DS

IDS Working Group [Page 74] RFC 1632 X.500 Catalog UCOM.X 500

 specification, and a	C++ API	(for release 10/93).
 The DUAs include a graphical	directory browser with powerful	search
 functionality for OpenLook and Motif, and a full-screen curses-based
 interface with full DAP functionality.
 TS-E3X's strategy for UCOM.X500 is three-fold: Firstly, to use it as
 the directory service for Spheris, France Telecom's range of
 electronic mail products based on X.400 (88)	(release mid '94).
 Secondly, to	offer it to third parties developing specific
 applications	using X.500: current applications include a distributed
 application to control document transfer in a large French hospital
 and distributed applications	management in the French Post Office;
 planned uses	include	office applications for	control	of document
 circulation (workflow) and cooperative document editing. Thirdly, to
 offer it to telecomms operators such	as France Telecom for
 application in network management. UCOM.X 500 is used extensively by
 French research centers involved in PARADISE.

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

 UCOM.X 500 conforms to X.500	(88) as	specified in paragraph 9 of
 X.519.
 Development of the product based on X.500 (93) is planned for '94
 with	release	of a product conformant	to the principal extensions at
 the end of '94. Emphasis is being placed on the shadowing protocol,
 the schema and access control.

CONFORMANCE WITH PROPOSED INTERNET STANDARDS

 The COSINE and Internet Schema (RFC 1274) is	supported with minor
 exceptions.
 The string representation of	PSAPs and their	internal encoding
 conforms to RFC 1277.
 The string representation of	DNs will migrate to the	Internet RFC
 1485	definition.

CONSISTENCE WITH INFORMATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RFCs

 RFC 1279 (X.500 and Domains)	is supported. The string representation
 of PSAPs and	their internal encoding	conforms to RFC	1278.
 AFRO	(algorithme francais de	recherche optimise), the search	/ name
 resolution algorithm	proposed by UCOM.X 500,	differs	from the UFN
 algorithm principally in that it attempts to	optimize by performing

IDS Working Group [Page 75] RFC 1632 X.500 Catalog UCOM.X 500

 read	operations before resorting to searches	in order to exploit the
 name	error information.

INTEROPERABILITY

 Through UCOM.X 500's	use in the French PARADISE pilot,
 interoperability has	been informally	but extensively	tested with
 Quipu and other implementations.
 Detailed interoperability tests  with Quipu,	Marben and  Siemens/Bull
 DIR/X are being conducted by	 the PARADISE OIFP (Operational
 Interworking) team at INRIA Rocquencourt, France.
 The product	is currently also undergoing  formal tests for
 conformance to the CTS2  DSA/DAP and	 ACSE/Presentation/Session
 specifications  at the  French OSI conformance test centre.

PILOT CONNECTIVITY

 DSA and DUA connectivity to the PARADISE pilot.

BUGS

 UCOM.X 500 is a commercial product. As such,	it is supported	and bugs
 are fixed when detected. Bug	reports	can be sent to our support team
 via electronic mail.

CAVEATS AND GENERAL LIMITATIONS

 The DIT structure and inverted attribute tables are stored in main
 memory. The recommended main	memory size for	a DSA is 1 kb per node,
 i.e., 10 Mb for a database of 10,000	objects. The current recommended
 maximum is a	database size of the order of 100,000 objects.
 Of the selected attribute types defined in X.500 (88), the
 searchGuide attribute is not	supported ; neither are	the following
 attributes from the Cosine and Internet Schema (RFC 1274):
 OtherMailbox, MailPreferenceOption and the various quality
 attributes.
 The X/DS API	supports the Basic Directory Contents (BDCP), the MHS
 Directory User (MDUP) and the Strong	Authentication (SAP) packages
 with	minor limitations. A proprietary mechanism for defining	new
 classes and attributes is offered. Asynchronous operations and
 multiple concurrent sessions	are not	supported. Whilst referral may
 be handled automatically, continuation references are not.

IDS Working Group [Page 76] RFC 1632 X.500 Catalog UCOM.X 500

INTERNETWORKING ENVIRONMENT

 UCOM.X 500 includes a transport stack for TP0 with TCP/IP (RFC 1006)
 and X.25.  The stack	has been ported	to SunNet OSI for TP4 with CLNP.

HARDWARE PLATFORMS

 UCOM.X 500 can easily be ported to any UNIX machine.	It currently
 runs	on: Sun	3 and 4, IBM RS	6000, DEC ULTRIX (Vax and Mips), 386-
 based PCs, Bull DPX/2 and DPX/20, Sequent, Tandem and others.

SOFTWARE PLATFORMS

 UCOM.X 500 is portable to any UNIX-like operating system. It	has been
 ported to: UNIX SVR3	and SVR4, SUN OS 4, AIX, SCO Unix, Interactive
 Unix, ULTRIX, HP-UX,	Dynix (Sequent), BOS (Bull) and	others.
 Ports to the	following are planned: OS/2 ('94), Windows 3 ('94).
 The product does not	make use of an external	DBMS for the information
 base.

 Functionality, Multiple Vendor Platforms, Needs ISODE, RFC-1274,
 RFC-1484, Source, Sun, UNIX,	X Window System

ABSTRACT

 Xdi is a Directory User Agent (DUA) for the X Window	System.	 In
 addition to providing a user-friendly interface, it supports
 Directory interactions of different levels of complexity. Users can
 select different window screens to browse, search and modify	the
 Directory.  There are two different search screens for name based
 search and attribute	based search. It is simple to use for novice
 users but is	also useful for	more advanced users to formulate complex
 search filters.  Xdi	also supports "user-friendly naming" in	many
 cases so that users are not required	to know	X.500 naming format.

COMPLIANCE (applicable only for DSAs and DUAs)

 88 standard compliant: Delete and Add operations, and strong
 authentication not implemented. There are no	facilities to modify the
 RDNs	of entries.

CONFORMANCE WITH PROPOSED INTERNET STANDARDS

 RFC 1274 is supported.

CONSISTENCE WITH INFORMATIONAL AND EXPERIMENTAL RFCs

 RFC 1484 is supported.

INTEROPERABILITY

 Believed to be interoperable	with other DSAs. Only tested against
 ISODE/QUIPU DSAs.

CAVEATS and GENERAL LIMITATIONS

INTERNETWORKING ENVIRONMENT

 Same	as ISODE.

HARDWARE PLATFORMS

 This	software has been tested on SUN4. It is	expected that the
 software is portable	to SUN3	and other UNIX machines.

SOFTWARE PLATFORMS

 Xdi is expected to run on ISODE (release 7.0	upwards) in UNIX
 environment.	 The 'xdi' directory has been designed to fit directly
 into	the ISODE source tree. Xdi requires X11R4, the associated Xt
 toolkit and Athena widget libraries.	 Also see the operating
 environments	of ISODE.
