Hello,

I am trying to figure out what to use for the "user_enabled_*" attributes for 
the HP Enterprise Directory servers. It looks like the enabled attribute values 
in the keystone.conf file are expected to have numerical values.

From(URL 
http://docs.openstack.org/trunk/openstack-compute/admin/content/configuring-keystone-for-ldap-backend.html
 :
In case that the directory server does not have an attribute enabled of type 
boolean for the user, there are several configuration parameters that can be 
used to extract the value from an integer attribute like in Active Directory:
[ldap]
user_enabled_attribute = userAccountControl
user_enabled_mask      = 2
user_enabled_default   = 512
In this case the attribute is an integer and the enabled attribute is listed in 
bit 1, so the if the mask configured user_enabled_mask is different from 0, it 
gets the value from the field user_enabled_attribute and it makes an ADD 
operation with the value indicated on user_enabled_mask and if the value 
matches the mask then the account is disabled.
It also saves the value without mask to the user identity in the attribute 
enabled_nomask. This is needed in order to set it back in case that we need to 
change it to enable/disable a user because it contains more information than 
the status like password expiration. Last setting user_enabled_mask is needed 
in order to create a default value on the integer attribute (512 = NORMAL 
ACCOUNT on AD)
What if the enabled attributes from the LDAP server are not numerical values 
but rather character strings?

hpStatus: Active, Deceased, Leave of Absence, Leave with Pay, Terminated, 
Retired, Pending, Limited

How would you set the attribute enabled = 'Active'? Mind you that this is a 
read only ldap connection.

user_enabled_attribute = hpStatus
user_enabled_mask = 0
user_enabled_default = "Active"

Thanks,

Mark
