A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. This draft is a work item of the Service Location Protocol Working Group of the IETF. Title : Conversion of LDAP Schemas to and from SLP Templates Author(s) : J. Kempf, R. Moats, P. St. Pierre Filename : draft-ietf-svrloc-template-conversion-06.txt Pages : 27 Date : 05-Jun-00 This document describes a procedure for mapping between SLP service advertisments and LDAP descriptions of services. The document covers two aspects of the mapping. One aspect is mapping between SLP service type templates and LDAP directory schema. Because the SLP service type template grammer is relatively simple, mapping from service type templates to LDAP types is straightforward. Mapping in the other direction is straightforward if the attributes are restricted to use just a few of the syntaxes defined in RFC 2252. If arbitrary ASN.1 types occur in the schema, then the mapping is more complex and may even be impossible. The second aspect is representation of service information in an LDAP directory. The recommended representation simplifies interoperability with SLP by allowing SLP directory agents to backend into LDAP directory servers. The resulting system allows service advertisements to propagate easily between SLP and LDAP. A URL for this Internet-Draft is: http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-ietf-svrloc-template-conversion-06.txt Internet-Drafts are also available by anonymous FTP. Login with the username "anonymous" and a password of your e-mail address. After logging in, type "cd internet-drafts" and then "get draft-ietf-svrloc-template-conversion-06.txt". A list of Internet-Drafts directories can be found in http://www.ietf.org/shadow.html or ftp://ftp.ietf.org/ietf/1shadow-sites.txt Internet-Drafts can also be obtained by e-mail. Send a message to: mailserv@ietf.org. In the body type: "FILE /internet-drafts/draft-ietf-svrloc-template-conversion-06.txt". NOTE: The mail server at ietf.org can return the document in MIME-encoded form by using the "mpack" utility. To use this feature, insert the command "ENCODING mime" before the "FILE" command. To decode the response(s), you will need "munpack" or a MIME-compliant mail reader. Different MIME-compliant mail readers exhibit different behavior, especially when dealing with "multipart" MIME messages (i.e. documents which have been split up into multiple messages), so check your local documentation on how to manipulate these messages. Below is the data which will enable a MIME compliant mail reader implementation to automatically retrieve the ASCII version of the Internet-Draft.
