The lowest
component of a DN is placed at the leftmost location of the DIT and moved progressively up
the tree. The following illustration shows the DIT for this example.
The commonly used LDAP attributes are as follows:
CommonName (cn) Common name of an entry
Country (c) Name of the country
Domain component (dc) Domain component
Organization (o) Name of organization
OrganizationalUnitName (ou) Name of unit within the organization
NOTE
The value cn=OracleContext is a special entry in the directory server
that supports directory-enabled features such as directory naming. The
Oracle Context is created using the Oracle Net Configuration Assistant
discussed earlier in this chapter.

Chapter 15: Oracle Net 537
Setting Up an Oracle Internet Directory
As detailed earlier, you can use the Oracle Net Configuration Assistant or the Oracle Net Manager
to perform the initial configuration tasks. Once the directory schema and Oracle Context have
been established, you can begin to register service names with the directory service using the
Oracle Net Manager. The Oracle Context area is the root of the directory subtree where all
information relevant to Oracle software is stored.
When the Oracle Context is installed, two entities are created: OracleDBCreators and
OracleNetAdmins. The OracleDBCreators entity with a DN of (cn=OracleDBCreators,
cn=OracleContext) is created. Any user who is a member of OracleDBCreators can register a
database server entry or directory client entry using the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant.
