type, as shown in Table 6-2. A value of 1 indicates that the match type is valid for the

the bit position for the telephone number attribute is set to 0, indicating that the Directory

Advanced Search form.
The fourth and fifth columns in the search attributes contain empty strings required by the

Directory Express does exact matches for user ID strings. It does not attempt to match user

uid attribute, uncomment
the appropriate lines in
pbconfig/dsgwfilter.conf, and comment out the
corresponding lines.
