I am not sure its so straightforward on the Linux side.
I want to add a new attribute to identify users as Contractor or Government.
Is this recommended or possible within LDAP?




linux rhel users ldap freeipa

  • It is certainly possible to modify the LDAP schema to add an attribute, assuming that a suitable attribute in a class does not already exist. For example, inetOrgPerson already has "employee type" which might be suitable. However, you could also model the domain differently (using a different/additional OU for example), or perhaps just using groups. I think providing a few scenarios about how you want to filter/search, etc. would help.

  • Thank you. For example: ipa user-show jdoe -all would show a field of Status: Contractor or Status: Government.

How many registers does an x86_64 CPU actually have?

Image
Clash Royale CLAN TAG #URR8PPP up vote 2 down vote favorite I am currently learning reverse engineering and am studying the flags register. I had in my mind that rflags was just another name for one of the 16 general purpose registers, for example rax or rbx . But it looks like rflags is actually an additional register. So that makes 17 registers in total... how many more could there be? I have spent at least an hour on this and found numerous different answers. The best answer so far is this, which says that there are 40 registers in total. 16 General Purpose Registers 2 Status Registers 6 Code Segment Registers 16 SSE Registers 8 FPU/MMX Registers But if I add that up, I get 48. Could anybody provide an official answer on how many registers an x86_64 CPU has (e.g. an Intel i7). Additionally, I have seen references to 'hardware' and 'architectural' registers. What are those registers and how many are there? register x86-64 share | improve this...
