You can find the compiler only in +www.openldap.org. Before compiling, be sure to define +the "LDAP_COMPONENT" macro to obtain component +supported version of C library and back-ends of eSNACC. +Otherwise compiled library will fail to be linked to +the module. +2) using eSNACC, compile your ASN.1 specifications and +copy the generated .c and .h files to this directory +Ex) +$ esnacc -E BER_COMP -E GSER -t -d -f example.asn +For Component Matching, set BOTH BER_COMP and GSER on. +After compiling, you will get example.c and example.h +3) modify example.c accordingly, seeing certificate.c +and certificate.asn as a reference. +- add init_module_xxx() located in generated .c file +into init_module() in init.c. +- modify the arguments of InstallOidDecoderMapping(...) +accordingly +- in the generated .c file, you need to write +"DecComponentxxxTop(...)" function for yourself. +You can copy BDecComponentCertificateTop in the +generated .c file and modify it accordingly. +4) register a new attribute syntax with a new OID +in a schema file +5) then goto 3) of B) section. + +%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% +D) How to configure Component Indexing +%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% +You can generate indices on each component of +a given attribute whose values are in either GSER or +BER. Currently primitive ASN.1 types, DN, and RDN +can be indexed for equality matching in BDB. +In order to generate indices, put following line +in the slapd configuration file, slapd.conf. + +index [attribute name].[component reference] eq + +Ex) +index userCertificate eq +index userCertificate.toBeSigned.issuer.rdnSequence eq +index userCertificate.toBeSigned.serialNumber eq +index userCertificate.toBeSigned.version eq + +%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% +D) How to configure Attribute Alias +%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% +If your client is unable to use component filters, +attribute aliasing can be used instead. Attribute +Alias maps a virtual attribute type to an attribute +component and a component matching rule. +You can create your own aliases by following steps. + +1) register aliasing attributes in the schema file. +Sample aliasing attributes are in test.schema. +2) compose component filters for aliasing attributes +and put them in "preprocessed_comp_filter" array +in "init.c". +3) add "add_aa_entry" function calls in +"init_attribute_aliasing_table()" in "init.c" +4) perform searching against the aliasing attribute +Ex) +"(x509CertificateIssuer:distinguishedNameMatch= +cn=ray,L=yorktown,o=ibm,c=us)" |
