An entry is the structure that holds information in a directory server. It consists of the following components:
A distinguished name that uniquely identifies the entry among all other entries in the server.
A collection of object class values that are used to govern the contents of the entry.
A collection of attribute that contain the actual data for the entry.
An entry must always have exactly one structural object class that defines what type of entry it is. It may have zero or more auxiliary object classes that may be used identify other characteristics for the entry. Together, the structural and auxiliary classes define a set of required attributes, which must be present in the entry, and optional attributes, which may be included in the entry but are not required.
