# === LDAP Operations
|
||||
# The essential operations are: <i>bind, search, add, modify, delete, and rename.</i>
|
||||
# The essential operations are: #bind, #search, #add, #modify, #delete, and #rename.
|
||||
# ==== Bind
|
||||
# Bind supplies a user's authentication credentials to a server, which in turn verifies
|
||||
# #bind supplies a user's authentication credentials to a server, which in turn verifies
|
||||
# or rejects them. There is a range of possibilities for credentials, but most directories
|
||||
# support a simple username and password authentication.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Taken by itself, the bind operation can be used to authenticate a user against information

# Taken by itself, #bind can be used to authenticate a user against information

# stored in a directory, for example to permit or deny access to some other resource.

||||
# In terms of the other LDAP operations, most directories require a successful #bind to
|
||||
# be performed before the other operations will be permitted. Some servers permit certain
|
||||
# operations to be performed with an "anonymous" binding, meaning that no credentials are
|
||||
# presented by the user. (We're glossing over a lot of platform-specific detail here.)
|
||||
#
|
||||
# ==== Search
|
||||
# Searching the directory involves specifying a treebase, a set of <i>search filters,</i>
|
||||
# Calling #search against the directory involves specifying a treebase, a set of <i>search filters,</i>
|
||||
# and a list of attribute values.
|
||||
# The filters specify ranges of possible values for particular attributes. Multiple
|
||||
# filters can be joined together with AND, OR, and NOT operators.
|
||||
# A server will respond to a search by returning a list of matching DNs together with a
|
||||
# A server will respond to a #search by returning a list of matching DNs together with a
|
||||
# set of attribute values for each entity, depending on what attributes the search requested.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# ==== Add
|
||||
# An add operation specifies a new DN and an initial set of attribute values. If the operation
|
||||
# #add operation specifies a new DN and an initial set of attribute values. If the operation
|
||||
# succeeds, a new entity with the corresponding DN and attributes is added to the directory.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# ==== Modify
|
||||
# Modify specifies an entity DN, and a list of attribute operations. Modify is used to change
|
||||
# #modify specifies an entity DN, and a list of attribute operations. #modify is used to change
|
||||
# the attribute values stored in the directory for a particular entity.
|

# Modify may add or delete attributes (which are lists of values) or it change attributes by
|
||||
# #modify may add or delete attributes (which are lists of values) or it change attributes by
|
||||
# adding to or deleting from their values.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# ==== Delete
|
||||
# The delete operation specifies an entity DN. If it succeeds, the entity and all its attributes
|
||||
# #delete operation specifies an entity DN. If it succeeds, the entity and all its attributes
|
||||
# is removed from the directory.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# ==== Rename (or Modify RDN)
|
||||
# Rename (or Modify RDN) is an operation added to version 3 of the LDAP protocol. It responds to
|
||||
# #rename (or #modify_rdn) is an operation added to version 3 of the LDAP protocol. It responds to
|
||||
# the often-arising need to change the DN of an entity without discarding its attribute values.
|
||||
# In earlier LDAP versions, the only way to do this was to delete the whole entity and add it
|
||||
# again with a different DN.
|
||||
#
|
||||
# Rename works by taking an "old" DN (the one to change) and a "new RDN," which is the left-most

# part of the DN string. If successful, rename changes the entity DN so that its left-most

# node corresponds to the new RDN given in the request. (RDN, or "relative distinguished name,"
