1st paragraph, 2nd sentence

"Table 2-1 provides the complete list of the most attribute types among the directory
server implementations."

Perhaps it should be "... the most common attribute types ..." or "... most of the
attribute types ...".

It just doesn't make sense as it is.

Box "Adding Subnets to a Site ..."

wrong:
A subnet mask of 255.255.248.0 would be 11111111.11111111.11111100.00000000, which is 8+8+5, or 21.

5th line of code;

arrPhoneList = objUser.GetEx("telephoneNumber");
In Windows 2003 this is not an array of numbers. the correct entry is called
otherTelephone. I also encountered this same issue withthe next example at Example
21-4 which references the "pager' field. This is also incorrect. the correct array is
otherPager.

The script at Example 21-4 also fails with an error that the object is not a
container when it tries to cycle through the variables and the variable is empty. I
know that you have not introduced an error handling at this point but the script does
fail beacuase of this.
