2nd TF-LSD meeting, Amsterdam, 2. February 2001
Peter Gietz

2. AGENDA Taxonomy draft and CIP work A. TF-LSD information site
B. CIP implementations interoperability
C. Privacy Study
D. European White Pages service specs
E. Experimental White Pages service
F. X.521-DC interoperability
All the rest

3. Taxonomy draft and CIP work
Moats/Hedberg: A Taxonomy of Methods for LDAP Clients Finding Servers
Client configuration
Well known DNS aliases
Service Location Protocol
Referrals
SRV records
RFC 2219
„ldap.xx.yy“
Implemented in web2ldap

4. Taxonomy contd. DNS SRV and referrals: DNS SRV records
RFC 2052, RFC 2782 and draft-ietf-dnsext-rfc2782bis-00.txt
_Service._Proto.Domain IN SRV Priority Weight Port Target
Implemented in web2ldap
Used in draft-zeilenga-ldap-root-01.txt: „OpenLDAP Root Service - An experimental LDAP referral service“
DNS SRV and referrals:
draft-zeilenga-ldapnsref-00.txt
Objectclass dNSReferral
Ref: ldap:/// + SRV -> complete referral

5. Taxonomy contd. DNS SRV and URIs: DNS SRV and PKIX:
draft-andrews-http-srv-00.txt
Can be used for looking up ldap ports
Conflict resolution: ports in URI and SRV RR
DNS SRV and PKIX:
draft-ietf-pkix-pkixrep-00.txt
PKIX Repository Locator Service for:
LDAP
HTTP
OCSP

6. Taxonomy contd. Service Location Protocol v2 RFC 2608
Service template for LDAP
Highly sofisticated protocol
Uses multicast
User Agent – Service Agent
User Agent – Directory Agent – Service Agent

7. Taxonomy contd. Do we need a Deliverable on all this?
„that provides experiences of using all of the different possible ways of finding and connecting together LDAP servers“ (DC)

8. A. TF-LSD Information site
Responsible: Yuri
Done and in progress
Thanks to Yuri
Any comments?

9. B. CIP Interoperability
Responsible: Peter
Co-workers: Roland, Henny
Anyone else?
This should be done fast: due January 2001
Proposed time line:
Preparations: now – 16.2.
Tests: To 23.2.
Writing document:
Three implementations test worthy:
Ericson TISDAG implementation
DESIRE II TIO index
Rolands GIDS

10. CIP Interoperability contd.
What to test?
TIO interoperability in terms of:
Scalability
Performance
Internationalization
Referrals
Functionality v2/v3

11. CIP Interoperability contd.
How to test?
Test data set: telephone data of Sweden
Which host(s)?
Which operatingsystem(s)?

12. C. Privacy study Responsible: Peter Co-workers: who else?
Due March 2001
(so should be finished by end of April latest)
Proposed structure:
European privacy legislation
Description of a generic CIP based WP-Service
Privacy issues in such a service
Organizational and technical solutions

13. D. European WP service specs
Responsible: Roland
Co-workers: Peter, Konstantin, Henny, Diego, Stig
Who else?
Due June 2001
Can be done if more people involved that write single chapters
Specs will utilize the studies on interoperability and privacy

14. D. European WP service specs
Specs should include:
General architecture
Schema (EduPerson??)
TIO distribution mechanism
Registry for Servers and crawlers
Crawler policy
Authentication mechanisms
Internationalization issues

15. E. Experimental WP service
Responsible: Konstantin
Co-workers: the specs people
Who else?
Due: August 2001
Work should be done paralell with the specs
Otherwise we have to postpone dead line

16. F. X.521-DC interoperability
Responsible: Ton?
Co-Workers: Diego, Luuk, David Ch., Roland, Peter
Due: November 2001
May be this can be finished earlier

17. All the rest G. PKI storage requirements / specs
Due February 2002
Responsible: ??
Co-workers: ??
H. PKI storage service
Due June 2002
Responsible ??
Co-Workers ??
I. Investigation about other Services
Due August 2002
Responsible: Peter ??
