Abstract

Based on experiences with Directory Systems in distributed systems, the paper starts with a summary of requirements to a Distributed Directory Service. The second part describes the actual work of CCITT on Directory Service and gives an outlook to the CCITT/ISO convergence of Directory Systems. Finally an estimation of the CCITT concept and some suggestions for additional features will be given.
