Hello all, I an new to LDAP, and I have a need to migrate the existing system to ldap as this will ease a bit the management for the new system implementation. I need to authenticate users for a web site, and for the internal system ( linux, windows stations .... etc). Now the available account objectclass is structural so I can not user inetorgperson with account as both are structural. In this case I decided to extend inetOrgPerson, and add username and password as a MUST attributes. This is because all the users have access to the web site and they need authentication, but some users will need to have access to the machines. In this case I will create a new objectClass (ie. accountInfo) which containts the info I need (home directory, shell, loginScript, .... etc).
The issue here is how do I restrict the accountInfo to be added under User ? This is in fact not only specific to this senario. I couldn't find any docs about how to prevent objectClass domain to be added under group ! Finally, how do other ldap admin deal with similar cases ? Any advice ?
thank you.
