Attribute encryption in RDN of an entry
The encrypted attribute of the RDN is displayed in clear text instead of being displayed in the encrypted format. This issue is a known limitation.
When you add an entry to a directory server instance with an RDNĀ® that has encrypted
attribute in it, the following error message is displayed:
GLPWDM003E An error occurred while adding entry uid=5user,uid=5user,o=ibm,c=us :
uid=5user,uid=5user,o=ibm,c=us: [LDAP: error code 34 - GLPSRV156I
Encrypted attributes are not allowed in entry distinguished names.].An
attribute that is already present in the RDN of an entry can be encrypted
without getting any error message. When the directory server instance
is started, the encrypted attribute of the RDN must be displayed in the encrypted
format. Instead, the entry displays the RDN in clear text.This inconsistency is a limitation in the existing design.
