[389-users] Replication field doubt

I have a replication with a 389 DS server and my AD domain. According to
the documentation the field used to control the replication is "NT user ID"
on 389 DS and it is populated from Active directory´s field "
sAMAccountName".

The fact is that "sAMAccountName" is limited to 20 characters.


My problem is that I always create my user´s in the active directory first,
so when I create a user longer than 20 characters, 389 DS create it missing
letters (off corse the problem is about windows limitation and I know
that), I´m just trying to find out the esiest solution to my problem.

For example, I have an user called "therezinha.figueiredo" and when I
create it on my AD the "sAMAccountName" is "therezinha.figueired", so the
replication plugin create in the 389 Server an user Called "
therezinha.figueired"

I Also tried to modifify the user uid and keep the "NT user ID". For
example:

After the replication plugin created the user called "therezinha.figueired"
I modified it manually to ""therezinha.figueiredo" and kept the "NT user
ID", but something strange hapenned with this user groups (in the 389 DS
and also in the Active Directory).


Any clues? Can I use another field to populate users "NT user ID" and  change
it on the replication plugin?


Thanks
