Does openldap support generating unique identifier or guids, I need to generate it using a ldap C API and wondering if DS does that for me or do I need my own GUID generator in application.
The answer depends on what you are really asking. Every entry in the OpenLDAP server has a unique identifier associated with it, called entryUUID. If you're asking if it can create unique Group ID's or uidNumber values, no it does not.
