NAME

DirectoryServiceAttributes The following standard attribute types are defined in <DirectoryServices/DirServicesConst.h>

DESCRIPTION

This document contains well known attribute and record type constants.

They can be used with dsDataNodeAllocateString() to create a data node to pass to a Directory Services API call.

Legend:

eDS1xxxxxx Single Valued Attribute

eDSNxxxxxx Multi-Valued Attribute

NOTE: Access controls may prevent any particular client from reading/writting various attributes. In addition some attributes may not be stored at all and could represent "real-time" data generated by the directory node plug-in.

NOTE #2: Attributes in the model are available for records & directory nodes.
