nsRoleDn
Definition
This attribute contains the distinguished name of all roles that apply to an entry.
Membership of a managed role is conferred upon an entry by adding the role's DN
to the entry's nsRoleDN attribute.
For example:
dn: cn=staff,o=Netscape,o=example.com
objectclass: LDAPsubentry
objectclass: nsRoleDefinition
objectclass: nsSimpleRoleDefinition
objectclass: nsManagedRoleDefinition
dn: cn=userA,ou=users,o=Netscape,o=example.com
objectclass: top
objectclass: person
sn: uA
userpassword: secret
nsroledn: cn=staff,o=Netscape,o=example.com
A nested role specifies containment of one or more roles of any type. In that case,
nsRoleDN defines the DN of the contained roles.
