I use OpenLDAP on Debian and Ubuntu primarily, so standard rfc2307. I do not have the citadel.schema or rfc2739.schema in place.
As to the clobbering, I think you are right. The login hook seems to be the culprit. I would be fine with it if I could map LDAP attributes to fields on the server without having to recompile or wave a magic wand. Our use case is a totally internal server without internet mail enabled. It is 100% internal mail only to one domain, (basically I register the users for the first login when I create their LDAP entry in a scripted fashion, in order to enable them in Citadel) and the users themselves do not need to update their own vcards. We do make use of aliases but those should not be user editable. I am ready to test any thoughts for code and can recompile on the spot to determine functionality. > Wed Feb 08 2017 11:58:55 EST from IGnatius T Foobar @ Uncensored Subject: >Re: WebCit and CitServer upgrade > > >Regarding the vCard update issue: > >Ctdl_LDAP_to_vCard() appears to be the function that painstakingly copies >LDAP attributes into a user's vCard.
