I vaguely remember coming across these proprietary IBM schema attributes. I
wonder why they did not add their specific things to normal
AttributeTypeDescription like other directory vendors did. Oh, well...

Could you please refer to docs of the grammar?

I already thought about this when looking at vendor-specific extensions for
AttributeTypeDescription for Novell eDirectory and OpenLDAP.

Here are some remarks:

1. ldap.schema is somewhat experimental although quite robust in recent
deployments. The API is still undocumented mainly because I would be willing
to change it if someone comes up with good ideas how to improve it.

2. Lib/ldap/schema/models.py is very closely modeled after RFC 4512. If the
IBM grammar loosely follows what's in that RFC 4512 you have a good chance to
derive from these classes and extend them by setting class attribute
token_defaults according to what's needed.

3. There's ldap.schema.subentry.SCHEMA_CLASS_MAPPING which maps subschema
subentry attribute types to Python schema classes in ldap.schema.models. So
you have to somewhat register the IBM-specific attributes there.

Curious to hear about how to proceed with that.

Ciao, Michael.

Please make sure you have all the necessary headers available on your system
for building Python extension modules and all the libs needed by python-ldap.
I don't know the package names on RHEL though.

Ciao, Michael.

I'm so sorry that i forgot this thread :(
