Sometimes, however, you need to express the context of an object in an eDirectory utility. For
example, you could be setting up Bob’s workstation and need to supply a name context, as shown in
Figure 1-9 on page 39 .

The context is specified as a list of containers separated by periods, between the object in question
and the top of the Tree. In the example above, User object Bob is in the container Accounts, which is
in the container Finance, which is in the container YourCo.
1.3.1 Distinguished Name
The distinguished name of an object is its object name with the context appended. For example, the
complete name of User object Bob is Bob.Accounts.Finance.YourCo.
1.3.2 Typeful Name
Sometimes typeful names are displayed in eDirectory utilities. Typeful names include the object
type abbreviations listed in the following table:
In creating a typeful name, eDirectory uses the type abbreviation, an equal sign, and the object’s
name. For instance, Bob’s partial typeful name is CN=Bob. Bob’s complete typeful name is
CN=Bob.OU=Accounts.OU=Finance.O=YourCo. You can use typeful names interchangeably with
typeless names in eDirectory utilities.
