given an entry such as:
dn=cn=abuse,ou=example.net,ou=mail,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com objectclass=mailgroup cn=abuse member=uid=jdoe,ou=people,ou=accounts,dc=example,dc=com
i'd like the entry to also include an attribute, generated automatically, based on the rdn of the entry and the superior's rdn. for example:
dn=cn=abuse,ou=example.net,ou=mail,ou=groups,dc=example,dc=com objectclass=mailgroup cn=abuse member=uid=jdoe,ou=people,ou=accounts,dc=example,dc=com maillocaladdress=abuse@example.com
where maillocaladdress is the automatically generated attribute.
is this possible? it seems like something an overlay might accommodate, so i thought i might try experimenting with slapo-rwm, but wanted to also ask here in the meantime.
I doubt that this is possible with slapo-rwm.
But you could at least enforce that attribute values match according to what you've subscribed above with a set-based constraint to avoid having false user input in your data.
For auto-generating values you could customize your LDAP administration UI. Which one are you using?
