1 Directory Service https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

2 Directory Services Markup Language 1 'Directory Services Markup Language' (DSML) is a representation of directory service information in an XML syntax. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

3 Multi-master replication - Directory services 1 Many directory service|directory servers based on Lightweight Directory Access Protocol|LDAP implement multi-master replication. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

4 Novell Directory Services 1 'Novell eDirectory' (formerly known as Novell Directory Services, sometimes referred to as Netware Directory Services) is an X.500-compatible directory service software product initially released in 1993 by Novell for centrally managing access to resources on multiple Server (computing)|servers and computers within a given computer network|network https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

5 Directory service 1 A 'directory service' is the software system that stores, organizes and provides access to information in a directory https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

6 Directory service 1 Many different directory services have been used since the advent of the Internet but this article focuses mainly on those that have descended from the X.500 directory service. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

7 Directory service - Introduction 1 A directory service called a naming service, maps the names of network resources to their respective network addresses https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

8 Directory service - Introduction 1 In X.500 (the directory service standards) and Lightweight Directory Access Protocol|LDAP the name is called the 'Distinguished name' (DN) and is used to refer to a collection of attributes (relative distinguished names) which make up the name of a directory entry. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

9 Directory service - Introduction 1 For example, looking up computers using a directory service might yield a list of available computers and information for accessing them. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

10 Directory service - Introduction 1 The term distribution is used to indicate that multiple directory servers, that hold different namespaces, are interconnected to form a distributed directory service https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

11 Directory service - Comparison with relational databases 1 There are a number of things that distinguish a traditional directory service from a typical relational database. Of course there are exceptions, but in general: https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

12 Directory service - Comparison with relational databases 1 * Directory services are often a central component in the Computer security|security design of an IT system and have a correspondingly fine granularity regarding access control: who may operate in which manner on what information. Also see: Access control list|ACLs https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

13 Directory service - Implementations of directory services 1 In the 1980s, the International Telecommunication Union|ITU and International Organization for Standardization|ISO came up with a set of standards - X.500, for directory services, initially to support the requirements of inter-carrier electronic messaging and network name lookup https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

14 Directory service - Implementations of directory services 1 There have been numerous forms of directory service implementations from different vendors. Systems developed before the advent of X.500 include: https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

Support for NetInfo was completely removed with the release of 10.5 Leopard. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

18 Directory service - Implementations of directory services 1 * 'Windows domain|NT Domains:' was developed by Microsoft to provide directory services for Windows machines prior to the release the LDAP-based Active Directory in Windows 2000. Windows Vista continues to support NT Domains, but only after relaxing the minimum authentication protocols it supports. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html

19 Directory service - LDAP implementations 1 * 'Active Directory:' Microsoft's modern directory service for Windows, originating from the X.500 directory, created for use in Exchange Server, first shipped with Windows 2000 Server and is supported by successive versions of Windows. https://store.theartofservice.com/the-directory-service-toolkit.html
