A beta release of a X.500 DUA implementation, xdi, is available via anonymous FTP on thumper.bellcore.com in pub/xdi.tar.Z. Source code and executables can be freely distributed for non-commercial and non-profit use. The xdi implementation was inspired from the Quipu and Pod implementations of ISODE release 6.8. It was originally done for an internal experimental protype which is slightly different from this public release. It has been compiled and tested in SunOS environment. In addition to providing a user-friendly interface, xdi supports Directory interactions of different levels of complexity. It is simple to use for novice users but is also useful to formulate complex queries. Xdi accepts "user-friendly names" in most cases. There are two different search screens to do name based search and attribute based search. Attribute based search screen is useful to do search filtering on attribute information, or to use attribute information to disambiguate a common name. It also allows DISH-like filters where complex queries can be done by logical expressions. The ISODE 6.8 libraries, X11R4, the associated X toolkit and Athena widget libraries are required to install and run xdi. No support and warranty will be provided for xdi. However, bugs report are still welcome.
