<h1 class="topictitle1">Distinguished name</h1>
<div><p>When you want to manage part of your directory, you refer to the <em>distinguished
name (DN)</em> or (if you choose) a keyword.</p>
<p>You specify the DN when you configure the directory server within the quality
of service (QoS) Initial Configuration wizard. DNs typically
consist of the name for the entry itself as well as the objects (top to bottom)
above the entry in the directory. The server can access all objects on the
directory that are below the DN. For example, say the LDAP server contains
the directory structure as is shown in the following figure:</p>
<div class="fignone"><span class="figcap">Figure 1. Sample QoS directory structure</span><br /><img src="RZAK8017.gif" alt="Sample QoS directory structure." /><br /></div>
<p>Server1 at the top (dc=server1,dc=chicago,dc=acme,dc=com) is the server
on which the directory server resides. The other servers, such as cn=QoS or
cn=tcpip policies, are where the QoS servers reside. So on cn=server1, the
default DN reads <samp class="codeph">cn=server1,cn=QoS,cn=tcpip policies,dc=server1,dc=chicago,dc=acme,dc=com.</samp> On
cn=server2, the default DN reads <samp class="codeph">cn=server2,cn=QoS,cn=tcpip policies,dc=server1,dc=chicago,dc=acme,dc=com.</samp></p>
<p>When managing your directory, it is important to change the proper server
in the DN, such as cn or dc. Be careful when editing the DN, especially because
the string is typically too long to be displayed without scrolling.</p>
