i'm using Jetspeed with LDAP-authentication, as described in src/ldap/ldap-notes.txt (in the Jetspeed-Source-Archive).

What is the deal with uidnumber? It looks like it comes from the nis
schema, but it does not seem to make any sense. First of all, Jetspeed dies
when I try to add a new user using LDAP - it dies from the inability to use
uidnumber (if you load the nis schema into OpenLDAP it will tell you that
I have no problem generating new users via Jetspeed (in conjunction with LDAP). Try logging in with a wrong password, then Jetspeed will show a link where you can generate a new login. This functions without problems with my installation, all relevant data will be put in the LDAP directory.
uidNumber is not allowed). Furthermore, I don't see anywhere that uidNumber
is actually used in Jetspeed. It looks like uid gets used everywhere, which
makes sense. The only references I see to uid number are in the jetspeed
schema, in LDAPUser and LDAPUserManagement - even the LDIF does not use
uidNumber.
I don't know what you want to do with the uid's. I, myself, am trying to get Login and Password form the user logged in, which also succeeds (look at the "Getting userid and password" thread).
I still have another question: the password of the newly generated user is written to LDAP in clear form, without encryption. Does anyone know how to change that, so that LDAP writes passwords only in {crypt} form? I didn't manage to get this.
