We're trying to create accounts (with the posixaccount
objectclass and so forth) via LDAP, and while we can add the
objectclasses and set the attributes without error, the attributes
for posixaccount don't show up on subsequent LDAP queries. Looking
at the entry via the 389 Console I see that the values were set
correctly but the checkbox for 'Enable Posix User Attributes' is
unechecked - I had thought checking this merely added the relevant
objectclass but apparently there's some other special magic
occuring.
How can we "enable" these attributes (so that we can than
retrieve them via LDAP later) via LDAP ? Manually going in via
the console and "enabling" them via the checkbox for every new
account is not a "solution".
