*/O=Organisation or CN=*/O=Organisation - which is correct?

*/O=Organisation

  • or -

CN=*/O=Organisation

Does anyone know which is correct? I want a Readers field to say ‘All Members of Organisation’, & these should always be canonicalized names, shouldn’t they?

Thanks.

*/O=Organisation is correct for all people within an organization.

Alos, if you enter (manually) CN=*/O=ORG, then it’s saved as */O=ORG in the backend.

Subject: Thank you.

(I wish all technical questions were so easily resolved!)

It can sometimes be useful to narrow the scope of document readers to departments within an organization, or sub-units within some other type of entity. If your Person documents have such naming in place, you can do this with expressions like:

“*/OU=Human-Resources/O=Organization”

“*/OU=Finance/O=Organization”

“*/OU=Legal/O=Organization”
