That's possible already.
Taken from the OpenLDAP Admin guide
(http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/overlays.html#Dynamic%20Lists):
overlay dynlist
dynlist-attrset nisMailAlias labeledURI
cn=all,ou=aliases,dc=example,dc=com
cn: all
objectClass: nisMailAlias
labeledURI:
ldap:///ou=People,dc=example,dc=com?mail?one?(objectClass=inetOrgPerson)
That's not what I was looking for.
This approach takes the "mail" attribute out of an inetOrgPerson entry
and adds it to the nisMailAlias, again as a "mail" attribute.
In my example I need to get the "uid" attribute out of a posixAccount
element and add it to the posixGroup as a _"memberUid"_ attribute. In
other words, the target attribute is named differently from the source
attribute.
That's why I suggested the extended syntax like
dynlist-attrset <group-oc> <URL-ad> [<member-ad>] [<result-ad>]
i.e.:
dynlist-attrset myposixGroup memberURL memberUid uid
