Not sure if you checked the wiki link:

http://wiki.sipfoundry.org/display/sipXecs/LDAP+Integration

LDAP configuration UI in sipx permits you to make an association between an
sipx user attribute (user name, user alias, phone number, address etc) with
a chosen LDAP attribute
In the help link there is a table that explains how an association is done:
the label represents an sipx user attribute that can be associated with an
ldap attribute form the corresponding combo-box.

Here is what it is said about the alias mapping

"aliases: telephoneNumber

Multiple attributes (possibly multi-value attributes) can be mapped to this
field. Since sipXconfig requires that all aliases are unique, it will drop
any values that are not unique. If non-numeric user ids are configured,
administrators may want to add conventional phone (extension) number as one
of the aliases. This is an optional mapping"

basically you can map aliases attribute with one ldap attribute from that
combo (defaults to telephoneNumber)

So I suspect that you would like to see that "useridAlias"  LDAP attribute
is available for selection in the corresponding combo-box...
What sipx does is to read all available ldap attributes from the configured
ldap.

If you cannot find useridAlias there then perhaps you have to do some ldap
configurations changes at LDAP level and not in sipx, because sipx displays
whatever it founds in the configured ldap

An option is to check with an LDAP dedicated client software and compare
with what sipx displays for you

You can play with: http://directory.apache.org/studio/   or
http://jxplorer.org/

Hope this helps,
