I started with LDAP just recently and I successfully built and implemented a custom schema. However there is one problem. I am required to add "userPasswordAtt" attribute to my custom schema which is similar to "userPassword" attribute in "inetOrgPerson" schema.
What exactly do you want to achieve?
But with this attribute I can not log in to phpLDAPadmin for example.
Yes, slapd does not know that it should use your custom password attribute. AFAIK you can't use a custom attribute for password-checking during a bind request. You could implement something like this on your client-side custom code.
As far as I know "userPassword" is never defined as password in any schema, I am suspecting that it has to be somehow hardcoded
Some attribute types are hard-coded in schema_prep.c since they are needed during boot-strapping a server with dynamic configuration.
