Hmmm. I checked our Active Directory schema and these java-related attributes do exist and are active in the schema. However, I have never used them, nor do I ever see a need to use them.
Not knowing the underlying system, I have no clue why they are being added to your attribute list other than it is just a java requirement. Is it not good enough for you to ask your admin to grant the required access and you just give your word, sign a contract or swear that you will never retrieve these attributes? Heck, we all have access to data that is not mean for public use, however, we all use common sense when choosing what data to display. Even so, when you look at these attribute names, what kind of hurtful information could actually be gleaned from them anyway? Sorry I can't be of much more help than this.

However, he does not want to allow access to them because he doesn't know if they'll be filled with information down the road. I guess what I really need to know is why those attributes are being requested so that I can convince him that the are harmless and only used for software interfacing and nothing more. I just don't know if it's coldfusion that's asking for them, or the java subsystem. And if it's the java subsystem, would macromedia even have any information?
