RFC2307 are the standard attributes and classes used generically in LDAP complaint systems.

Identity Management for Unix implies some services and other bits on Active Directory. I think you also get an MMC extension that shows some of them.

RFC2307(bis) is, at its heart, a schema developed by Sun and others, most notably PADL, in an attempt to use LDAP as a network information service, not to be confused with NIS or NIS+.
