[Pkg-openldap-devel] Bug#541292: Using an illegal RDN

[Howard Chu]

The specs for LDAP RDNs are defined in X.501(1993) section 9.3. Those specs 
requires the attributes used in a multivalued RDN to be distinct. I.e., any 
particular attribute can only appear once. The RDN in question 
"cn=echo+ipServiceProtocol=tcp+ipServiceProtocol=udp" violates this rule.

Changing the RDN to simply "cn=echo" is probably the best fix. There's no 
added value in putting the ipServiceProtocol into the DN, it doesn't make the 
entries any easier to lookup (in fact it makes it harder...).
