3.1.1.3.4.1.13 LDAP_SERVER_SORT_OID and LDAP_SERVER_RESP_SORT_OID

  • Article

This request control and its corresponding response control, LDAP_SERVER_RESP_SORT_OID, are documented in [RFC2891].

DCs only support sorting on a single attribute at a time. Therefore, the client constructs a SortKeyList that contains only one sequence. DCs running Windows 2000 operating system do not support ordering rules when sorting, so the client omits the orderingRule field of the SortKeyList when sending this control to a DC running Windows 2000; sorting uses the English: United States sort order. Starting with Windows Server 2003 operating system, DCs support ordering rules for the sort orders specified in the following table; if no ordering rule is specified, the DC uses the English: United States sort order. Section 6.5 specifies, by reference to [MS-UCODEREF], the effect of each sort order. Section 2.2.1 specifies the mapping between the sort orders that follow and the LCIDs used in section 6.5.

Windows Server 2008 operating system and later support an additional sort behavior called "phonetic display name sort". This behavior is triggered by specifying "msDS-PhoneticDisplayName;extended" as the attributeType in the SortKeyList ([RFC2891] section 1.1). When this option is present, the DC checks that the LDAP request satisfies the following requirements:

  • The operation is an LDAP search request.

  • The orderingRule field specifies the Japanese sort order (namely, "1.2.840.113556.1.4.1538").

  • The LDAP_CONTROL_VLVREQUEST control is attached to the search.

  • The search request has been sent to a global catalog port (port 3268 or 3269).

  • The scope of the search request is wholeSubtree.

  • The base object of the search request specifies the DN "".

  • The filter is set to (&(showInAddressBook=X)(displayName=*)), where X is a distinguished name and there exists an object O such that O!objectClass = addressBookContainer and O!distinguishedName = X.

If one or more of these criteria are not satisfied, the server returns the error unwillingToPerform / <unrestricted>.

If all of these criteria are satisfied, the DC performs a phonetic display name sort. In this sort, the search results are sorted on the msDS-PhoneticDisplayName attribute, using the Japanese sort order, in the normal fashion, except that if an object O does not have a value for the msDS-PhoneticDisplayName attribute but does have a value V for the displayName attribute, the server treats V as the value of O!msDS-PhoneticDisplayName for the purposes of the sort.

For example, consider an unsorted search result set consisting of four objects, as shown in the following table. Note that object #2 does not have a value for msDS-PhoneticDisplayName.

Object #

msDS-PhoneticDisplayName value

displayName value

1

A

C

2

D

3

B

E

4

F

C

Assuming for the purpose of this example that the letters A...Z sort in the order {A, ..., Z}, the results of performing a phonetic display name sort on the preceding data is the following.

Object #

msDS-PhoneticDisplayName value

displayName value

1

A

C

3

B

E

2

D

4

F

C

In particular, object #2 was placed before object #4 because the sort treated it as if it had the value "D" for its msDS-PhoneticDisplayName attribute.
