Fifth reminder: caldir.berkeley.edu will be pointed to ldap.berkeley.edu June 25

Hello CalNet Developers,

This is the fifth* reminder about the DNS change for  
caldir.berkeley.edu.

On June 25, we will reconfigure the DNS for
caldir.berkeley.edu to  
point to ldap.berkeley.edu. Please see Rob's March 12 note
for more  
details:

<https://calnet.berkeley.edu/news/entry/2007/03/12/0

Before June 25, however, we hope that applications currently
using  
the CalNet v1 service will have converted to use the CalNet
v2 service.

Note: We hope the transition will be seamless for most
applications,  
but we can not guarantee this. Therefore, developers have
two  
options: 1) Test your application to ensure that it works
against  
ldap.berkeley.edu, or 2) Explicitly move your application
from v1 to  
v2 before June 25. We feel option 2 is the most appropriate
course of  
action for all developers to take.

For more information about the v2 Directory Service, please
see:

* The v2 Directory Developer Transition Guide:
<https://calnet.berkeley.edu/developers/documentation/ 
v2TransitionGuide/index.html>

* The v1-v2 Attribute Schema Developer Transition Guide:
<https://calnet.berkeley.edu/developers/design/schema/ 
attv1v2TransGuide.html>

* The new v2 People Entry Structure:
<https://calnet.berkeley.edu/developers/design/
tree/people.html>

* The new v2 Attribute Schema Dictionary:

/design/schema/attributesv2.html>

Note: Some people have noted that some of the URLs above
produce a  
404 error. If this happens for you, make sure there are no
spaces in  
the URL you are trying to view. (There are no spaces in this
draft,  
but once the email is sent, spaces have been known to be
produced in  
some of the URLs above. A space shows up as %20 in HTML.)

Also, this change will not affect email address lookups via
a mail  
program, e.g., Eudora, Thunderbird, Outlook, Apple Mail,
etc.

If you have any questions or need help, please do not
hesitate to ask  
via calnet-adminlists.berkeley.edu.

* The "First on many reminders" email went out to
the CalNet  
Developers list, only. All future email about the DNS
changes for  
caldir.berkeley.edu will go to the CalNet Developers list,
Micronet,  
and Magnet. We apologize in advance for the cross-posting.
