Description Rich Megginson 2007-07-23 18:57:39 UTC
The directory server updates the modifyTimestamp on operations other than Modify
operations.  See http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4512.  However, attributes can be
modified by operations other than Modify.  For example, with password policy
enabled, a Bind operation may update one or more operational attributes in a
user's entry.  Admin's do not expect modifyTimestamp to be updated under this
and similar circumstances.  See also
