Hi.

With v1.0.6, LdapConnector 1.3.3 and openLDAP 2.4.28, there are a number of attributes that aren't appearing in the "External Attributes" pulldown. I have the same object classes defined for the connector as are in use in openLDAP (Top, Person, OrganizationalPerson, InetOrgPerson, posixAccount, shadowAccount). I went looking for homeDirectory, which openLDAP wants for anything created in my ou=People. Apache DS shows homeDirectory on openLDAP. It's just not in the pulldown. There are others I'm fairly certain should be, too, such as gecos.

Another oddity is that for most attributes with aliases, only one of them typically shows up in the pulldown. That's fine, except that there's at least one exception to this. Both cn and commonName appear in the pulldown.

I'd assumed the "Read Schema" boolean caused the connector to pull the all attributes relevant to the object classes from the directory service. Is this not the case?

Hi Edward,
thanks for reporting this: you are right, the "Read Schema" flag causes Syncope to ask the underlying connector for managed attributes (given the provided configuration).

Probably, the issues reported above with the ConnId LDAP connector and OpenLDAP are more related to the actual connector rather than to Syncope: could you please forward this e-mail - alongside with all relevant configuration and environment parameters - to [email protected] so that we can handle there more properly?

Regards.
