Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) -- a protocol used to access a directory service. LDAP support is currently being implemented in Web browsers and e-mail programs, which can query an LDAP-compliant directory. LDAP is a simplified version of the Directory Access Protocol (DAP), which is used to gain access to X.500 directories. It is easier to code the query in LDAP than in DAP, but LDAP is less comprehensive. For example, DAP can initiate searches on other servers if an address is not found, while LDAP cannot in its initial specification. Lightweight Access Directory Protocol is the primary access protocol for Active Directory.

eDirectory Naming Conventions (572 words)
The name context is determined by the object's location in the hierarchical tree structure and is composed of container object names.
The name context is obtained by combining the names of the object's parent objects (superior objects) into one reference.
The name context does not include the name of the eDirectory tree, the RDN of the [Root] object, or the RDNs of noncontainer objects.
RFC 2247 (rfc2247) - Using Domains in LDAP/X.500 Distinguished Names (1117 words)
A primary difference in specification of distinguished names from domain names is that each component of an distinguished name has an explicit attribute type indication.
It does contain suggested naming structures which are based on geographic and national regions, however there is not currently an established registration infrastructure in many regions which would be able to assign or ensure uniqueness of names.
Object Class Definitions An object with a name derived from its domain name using the algorithm of section 3 is represented as an entry in the directory.
