Why do you need o=internet DC suffix?

Hello all. I know the default is to have an o=internet suffix that you place your dc's under, but is this required? We are an edu site and will ONLY house edu addresses, so is it possible to have a dc=edu as your dc suffix and then create a dc=school beneath that? What problems would this cause? I'm wanting to do it this way to follow the ldap recipe for internet2 middleware. They recommend you put your users in an ou=People,dc=schoo,dc=edu.
Thanks for your help,
Bob

The more stringent directory requirements of iMS stem from the integration of Delegated Admin. DA is probably the worst product ever developed by Netscape/Sun. If you are going to use DA, then your are faced with understanding it's brain dead ways (the link in the previous post descibes the DA related requirements).
If you can avoid DA and you have the time to invest in understanding the prodcut, I would devote it to the messaging server requirements in the directory. There are just a few ACI and entries (msg-admin-..., End User Admininstrators...) to become familiar with. But you will see that the server can be flexible.
Another Note. If you are not using DA and your environment is large scale, take some time to trim out the DA related ACI that are polluting your directory.

  • Why do you need an f after a float initializtion?

    When you make a declaration and initialization of a float, you have to put an f after the number, correct?
    Like
    float productPrice1 = 285.00f;
    why do you need to do this and do you need to do it in an assignment operation to?
    productPrice1 = 285.00f;
    What about for doubles? Would I need to use a d in place of the f?
    thanks

    What about for doubles? Would I need to use a d inplace of the f?
    No, you need to do that to tell the compiler it is a
    float, not a double. When assign to a double, you
    don't need to tell the compiler it is a double. :)although nothing bad will happen if you do use a 'd' or 'D'.
    Good luck in learning Java.

  • Why do you need to shift click to select stroke color with eyedropper tool?

    Hi,
    Quick question..
    Why do you need to shift click to select the stroke color with the eyedropper tool?
    I had the problem where I could not do this earlier and found the solution on this forum.
    However I still do not understand the reason for this.
    Appreciate if anyone could explain it to me.
    Thanks in advance.
    Nori

    Hi, Nori,
    If you have the red and blue rectangle selected and the Fill square selected in the tool panel, as at bottom left, then hold the shift key down and click with the eyedropper on the green stroke in the upper rectangle, then the red fill will turn green but the stroke stays blue. If you select Stroke, as at bottom right, then shift-click with the eyedropper on the green stroke, the blue stroke will turn green but the fill stays red. With Fill selected and shift-click on the yellow fill, the red fill turns yellow; with Stroke selected the blue stroke turns yellow. If you do not depress the shift key, the red and blue rectangle will become yellow and green.
    It's complicated to explain, but I think that if you try it step by step it will make sense to you.

  • HT1657 Do you need the internet in order to watch a rented movie?

    I understand you need the internet to download the movie but then afterwards does it stream the movie or can you watch it at any time without having internet connection?

    No, you do not, not as long as the movie has downloaded completely.

  • Why do you need to go about linking to services-config.xml in your flex compiler

    Why do you need to go about linking to services-config.xml in
    your flex compiler when you want to do remoting. It just seems like
    a complicated way to do things.

    Yeah I find this perplexing as well. I'm guessing it has something to do with Opalis origins perhaps.
    Would be good to understand why.

  • Why would you need an H.264 hardware encoding device?

    I am a casual user of Adobe Premiere Pro and just upgraded to CS5.5.   I have been reading threads and someone said that he has problems with the Matrox encoder.  I can import my video and make and DVD so why would you need another hardware solution? 

    I don't know how it works on Windows but on the Mac it shows up as a QuickTime component. So any application that can export a QuickTime movie (QuickTime Player, Adobe Media Encoder, Compressor, etc) can export to this component and it will utilize the Matrox hardware.
    Theoretically you could set your preview file format in Premiere to the Matrox component but I don't know how well it would work.

  • Do you need a internet connection to use youtube?

    Do you need a internet connection to use youtube?

    The only alternative would be to download the video from YouTube on your computer and then, presuming it's one of the h.264 videos (Flash videos will not work on an iPod touch), you could then probably load it onto your iPod and view it with the iPod needing to be connected to the Internet. But you still need an Internet connection for your computer.

  • Why do you need PVDMs?

    Hi all,
    Dumb question!
    Why do you need PVDMs in a NM-HDV2-1T1/E1? The voice from the IP phones is in digital form, and so surely is the voice coming in over the T1/E1 - why do you need these DSPs?
    thanks,
    alec

    You could almost call them transcoders in this case.
    The default g711 codec for a given country (g711ulaw for North America, g711alaw for most everywhere else including I think the UK) is identical or nearly identical to that used on PRIs or clear-channel channelized circuits. If the g711 variant you're using for your VoIP traffic isn't the same as the g711 variant for PSTN circuit you're using, the DSPs handle that transcoding. If you're using robbed-bit channelized circuits, the DSPs have to drop a little bit of information. If you're using g729 or another low-speed codec, the DSPs have to "expand" the audio up to the PSTN channel size. And of course, the reverse of all this stuff takes place when audio comes in from the PSTN and has to be packetized and sent out on your IP network.
    The DSPs are also in charge of getting the right data to the PSTN channel at the right time. T1/E1 lines have strict timing requirements and the DSPs handle transmitting bits at just the right times. Part of that is handling the de-jitter buffers that turn possibly jittery RTP traffic into a nice isochronous bitstream for the PSTN circuit, and doing predictive insertion if we don't get voice data in time to put it on the circuit.
    One more duty the DSPs handle is echo cancellation from the PSTN. They "memorize" outgoing voice traffic, and then they listen for it coming back from the PSTN. If it's present, they mathematically "subtract" it from the incoming voice stream, which eliminates it.
    This is not a complete list of what the DSPs do for you, but I think I hit the highlights.

  • HT1918 Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card?

    Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card?  If I cannot purchase goods with the prepuchased gift cards, then the card is useless and I want my money back.

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Just because you are being asked to enter your credit card details doesn't mean that it will be charged for your purchases.
    Is it a newly created account ? If it is then unless you use the instructions on this page when creating an account then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used in the store : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

  • Why do you need a logical plant?

    Hi Guys
    Please explain me with an example, Why do I need a logical plant in SAP. If i decide to have one, can I have a logical plant without a valuation and then on moving the stock to the original plant it should get valuated. I raise this discussion my implentation is affected because of wrong valuation of stock. Please express your confident views regarding.
    Regards
    Pradeep/ICF

    Hi,
    Not sure why you need a logical plant. Normally dummy plants are made to facilitate material movements to cater complex scenarios. In OMS2 you can omit any Material type with regards to the plant as "Value updating" .
