There are two John Doe’s working for different departments of the same company in the US. How
could they be distinguished in an LDAP DN?
A.
Use their middle names or some agreed variant of the name.
B.
Assign them to different organizational units.
C.
Do nothing, you are allowed to duplicate DN’s.
D.
They cannot be entered into an LDAP server.
Explanation:
: When we talk about LDAP functionality we can use something known as an OU (Organizational
unit) to organize our users or objects inside the catalog in a very flexible way. If we have objects
with the same name, you can put them in different OU´s and they will not be the same for the
LDAP repository, this is because the LDAP DN name will be different between the 2 objects. (That
LDAP DN contains the location of the object inside the directory and also the name of it).
