I inherited an ldap with odd design. It has a custom attribute as the rdn in the dn for all entries. The rdn is not the uid. People entries are provisioned automatically and users choose a uid after their entry has been created for login purposes. The custom attribute for the rdn serves as a unique identifier. The uid is also unique.I found that getting products to work with this ldap is difficult because they expect the uid to be in the dn.
Which products have problems?
Comments? Should I put the uid back in the dn? Seems like it would make my life a lot simpler.
Sure. A simple modrdn when the uid is assigned.
And what methods are best to create entries for users without a uid? Maybe assign a temp and have them change it? Or just assign them which is always the easiest. Thanks.
Either way, but the former sounds like more work.
