My query starts "on topic" but, I acknowledge, is probably going
off-topic.
We are just about to design a new (and first) Active Directory (LDAP-ish)
set-up. I, too, seem to recall seeing hints (or suggested conventions)
about using "ou=people" and "ou=computer". One was RFC2307[bis] (the NIS
X.500 schema).
My LDAP experience is small: the folk who are planning this are even less
experienced.
Are there are recommendations, conventions, "common practices", etc. for
naming such ou's? (In our case, RFC2307 will be an important aspect.)
Sending URLs to me would be fine.
(As this has probably drifted way off-topic, please feel free to reply
privately, rather than on the list.)
