Netscape DIRECTORY SERVER 6.01 - ADMINISTRATOR Administrator's Manual page 49

You can assign only one language subtype per attribute instance in an entry. To
assign multiple language subtypes, add another attribute instance to the entry and
then assign the new language subtype. For example, the following is illegal:
cn;lang-ja;lang-en-GB:Smith
Instead, use:
cn: lang-ja: ja_value
cn: lang-en-GB: en-GB_value
Binary Subtype
Assigning the binary subtype to an attribute indicates that the attribute value is
binary. For example,
Although you can store binary data within an attribute that does not contain the
subtype, for example,
binary
that multiple variants of the attribute type may exist.
Pronunciation Subtype
Assigning the pronunciation subtype to an attribute indicates that the attribute
value is a phonetic representation. The subtype is added to the attribute name as
follows: attribute
;phonetic
This subtype is commonly used in combination with a language subtype for
languages that have more than one alphabet, where one is a phonetic
representation.
You might want to use this with attributes that are expected to contain user names,
such as or
cn givenname
that the attribute value is the phonetic version of the entry's Japanese name.
