I'm sorry, I guess I asked the same question again ;) What I really would like to know is how I could automate the process of defining a user attribute. What tables should I look at in the database, I would like to automate the process outside of the portal.

What are the custom and portal-defined property names? Are the portal-defined properties like the user.name.given and such defined in the spec, or are those the custom properties?
