DN's formation

1993-07-21 09:25:00
I have been trying to understand DN's generated by TIS and others and
asked a question which was not directly answered so let me phrase it in
terms of Rose.

Rose> { c=US, st=California, (o=DBC,l=Mountain View,l=Santa Clara)}
       is illegal.

From a strict application of X.501 I can see that, but what about

 { c=US, st=California, o=DBC, l=Mountain View, l=Santa Clara}

From my reading of the X.500's this must be legal.

And so should

 { c=US, st=Confusion, (o=DBC, cn=MTRose), (l=Santa Clara, cn=Marshall)}

These DN's do not appear to be very disginguished, but they do appear
legal.

Peace ..Tom Jones
