[cifs-protocol] Category 1 schema attributes and classes / FLAG_SCHEMA_BASE_OBJECT flag

[Edgar Olougouna]

Matthieu,

This is specified in the following section of MS-ADTS 3.1.1.2.5. 

3.1.1.2.5 Schema Modifications http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc223216(v=PROT.10).aspx
A Delete of an attributeSchema or classSchema object fails, with error unwillingToPerform / <unrestricted>.

On a related topic, attributeSchema or classSchema objects with FLAG_SCHEMA_BASE_OBJECT flag cannot modify the isDefunct to True.
3.1.1.2.5.2 Defunct http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc223220(v=PROT.10).aspx
If a Modify sets isDefunct to true but the attributeSchema or classSchema object is base (that is, it has FLAG_SCHEMA_BASE_OBJECT present in its systemFlags attribute), the Modify fails, with error unwillingToPerform / <unrestricted>.

Regards,
Edgar

Hi Matthieu, thank you for your question. A member of the protocol documentation team will be in touch with you soon.

While reading MS-ADTS I found that classes and attributes with FLAG_SCHEMA_BASE_OBJECT flag can't be renamed. But I found nothing about deletion.

Is this specified somewhere and if not does it means that my assumption that a class or attribute with this flag can't be removed is wrong ?

Thanks for the clarification.

Matthieu.
