154.1 | No X.500 | AIMTEC::PORTER_T | Terry Porter, ALL-IN-1 Support, Atlanta CSC | Mon Mar 02 1992 23:06 | 12 |
| ALL-IN-1 V3.0 does not contain any X.500 support.
The only thing that is X.500 like is DNS support for naming partitions in the
new File Cabinet.
However, I suspect that you mean X.500 support for mail addressing. Mail
addressing is little changed from V2.4 (there have been some improvements
in the DDS interface, but that is about it).

Yes Mail addressing ! I realize the X.500 product set wasn't quite
yet available but I was wondering what type of stuff was being planned.
The DDS support (at least with ALL-IN-1 2.4 and MR 3.1B) is very slow. The
one big advantage with the ALL-IN-1 em subsystem is the ability to validate at
entry time. I suspect my customer will write their own initial hooks using
MAIDES and CMU stuff but I would like more information before we pursue this
route.

154.3 | Wrong conference for `futures' discussion. | IOSG::MARCHANT | Only parrots succeed | Tue Mar 03 1992 09:46 | 8 |
| Since you are asking about futures, this is the wrong conference. These
questions would be better asked in the A1INFO conference (see notes 4.*
for membership pointer, if you aren't a member already.) I would have
directed you to product management, but just who that is is a bigger
mystery to me as well!
Cheers,
Paul.

| Good question. Beat up on the people with money to pay for it, and get me
some, and I'll do it... A X.500 DSAB is a bigger job than the DDS was.
But it is appears to be the case that it is not a priority for us in IOS
engineering (Make it one, and I'll be happy (having looked into and
read about X-500 at X-Mas - I hate to see work go to waste.).

| I am surprised that you think DDS is slow....
I certainly would have agreed with you about 3 years ago, and so I
haven't looked at it since then... Just recently I have seen it used
on a couple of user systems, and our own internal test system, and the
speed seems to be NOT a problem any more....

| I agree to a degree - on our development system, once we untangled the
UA set up and nodes, it's pretty good - both at the users point of view
and the MBMAN level. However, I guess the 30,000 limit kicks into play
in decisions about DDS vs X.500
