Good afternoon to all!
I am a newbie and I'm installing and configuring my first ldap server for my company. I want to use LDAP as an authentication method on my intranet ( Drupal) and as authentication for ssh. I have read that's what I need to have the attribute 'host' but this attribute is incompatible with 'person', so I can not have fields (name, surname, phone, email) and host.
Can you help solve it?
Thank you very much!

A host is not a person. A person is not a host (at least not yet). So the rejection of this attempt is completely valid.
It is not uncommon to have a host object that has a list or group of users allowed to access it, however.
