- >>Question: what are the compulsory X.400 address fields? Specifically,
- >>can an address contain C, ADMD, PRMD, OU and PN but NOT ORG?
-
- Not my area, but I have the blue book handy. There may be
- other standards or profile requirements that apply. But
- in X.402 clause 18.5, it seems to say (for the mnemonic
- form):
- Must have one country and admd to specify an ADMD.
- Some combination of a prmd, org, ou, pn, cn (up to one
- of each, except several ou allowed).
- Optionally, one or more dda.
- My guess is ou without org makes sense because often the
- org is running the prmd.
-
- My guess is that there are other rules that apply as well.
