[Fedora-directory-users] OID conflict: ntGroupType vs. mailRoutingAddress

[George Holbert]

Hi David,

Perhaps Hans abandoned the draft since Netscape came up with a 
replacement schema (as defined in 50ns-mail.ldif).
Some companies still use draft-lachman-laser-ldap-mail-routing-02.txt 
though.  In my case, I'm using it for support of a Mirapoint product.

I think what I might do is disable 50ns-mail.ldif, but change the 
mailRoutingAddress OID in draft-lachman-laser-ldap-mail-routing-02.txt 
to 2.16.840.1.113730.3.1.24.

Thanks for your input!
