RFC 1632 X.500 Catalog May 1994
Section 2 of this document contains a listing of implementations
cross referenced by keyword. This list should aid in identifying
implementations that meet your criteria.
To compile this catalog, the IDS Working Group solicited input from
the X.500 community by surveying several Internet mailing lists,
including: , , ,
and . We also contacted many people by telephone
and sent the template to several individuals and mailed a floppy disk
containing the survey template to a person who did not have Internet
access.
Readers are encouraged to submit comments regarding both the form and
content of this memo. New submissions are welcome. Please direct

1.1 Purpose
The Internet has experienced a steady growth in X.500 piloting
activities. This document hopes to provide an easily accessible
source of information on X.500 implementations for those who wish to
consider X.500 technology for deploying a Directory service.
1.2 Scope
This document contains descriptions of both free and commercial X.500
implementations. It does not provide instructions on how to install,
run, or manage these implementations. The descriptions and indices
are provided to make the readers aware of available options and thus
enable more informed choices.
1.3 Disclaimer
Implementation descriptions were written by implementors and vendors,
and not by the editors. We worked with the description authors to
ensure uniformity and readability, but can not guarantee the accuracy
or completeness of the descriptions, or the stability of the
implementations.
1.4 Overview
Section 1 contains introductory information.
Section 2 contains a list of keywords, their definitions, and a cross
reference of the X.500 implementations by these keywords.
