B.3 The cds_globalnames File
The cds_globalnames file contains a copy of data that is stored in a Directory Service
Agent (DSA) schema for use by GDS. CDS uses this file to interpret the GDS portion of
global names that it handles. The file contains only naming attributes; that is, attributes
that constitute a distinguished name. The following is a sample portion of the
cds_globalnames file:

The first column contains the object identifier, and the second column contains the string
name to which it is mapped. The third column is the ASN.1 identifier for the attribute
type, as defined in the appropriate CCITT recommendation (X.500 or X.400). The fourth
column is the ASN.1 label for the syntax of the attribute type. The fifth column contains
the ASN.1 identifier of the matching rule to be applied to the attribute type. Possible
syntax abbreviations are as follows:
CES Case Exact String
CIS Case Ignore String
PS Printable String
NS Numeric String
- Unspecified
Matching rules are defined as follows:
CEM Case Exact String Matching—Leading and trailing spaces are ignored and
multiple consecutive internal spaces are reduced to one; otherwise, the
strings must be the same length and corresponding characters must be
identical.
