Hi,
I need an attribute to store password expiry date for the inetOrgPerson objectClass entries in my directory. Since I could not find this or similar attribute in the existing set of schemas (including the ppolicy schema), I have tried to implemented an
extension in a custom local.schema:
objectclass ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.22280.1021.4.1 NAME 'x-sdids-enPortal'
DESC 'Indicates that this entry has additional attributes used by enPortal.'
AUXILIARY )
# The “MAY” directive below prevents slapd form starting, and is therefore commented out.
# MAY 1.3.6.1.4.1.22280.1021.3.1 )
attributeType ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.22280.1021.3.1 NAME 'x-sdids-passwordExpirationTime'
DESC 'TELUS defined password policy attribute type used by enPortal.'
EQUALITY generalizedTimeMatch
ORDERING generalizedTimeOrderingMatch
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.24
SINGLE-VALUE
USAGE userApplications )
I figured the best bet would be an auxiliary objectClass. After including the new local.schema file in the slapd.conf, and restarting slapd, I get an error when trying to add the new attribute value to an existing or new inetOrgPerson entry:
Oct 4 10:37:43 vmsdildap04 slapd[31176]: conn=1 op=22 MOD dn="uid=john@abc.com,ou=CUSTOMER,ou=Users,dc=private,dc=sdi"
Oct 4 10:37:43 vmsdildap04 slapd[31176]: conn=1 op=22 MOD attr=x-sdids-passwordExpirationTime
Oct 4 10:37:43 vmsdildap04 slapd[31176]: Entry (uid= john@abc.com,ou=CUSTOMER,ou=Users,dc=private,dc=sdi), attribute 'x-sdids-passwordExpirationTime' not allowed
Oct 4 10:37:43 vmsdildap04 slapd[31176]: entry failed schema check: attribute 'x-sdids-passwordExpirationTime' not allowed
Oct 4 10:37:43 vmsdildap04 slapd[31176]: conn=1 op=22 RESULT tag=103 err=65 text=attribute 'x-sdids-passwordExpirationTime' not allowed
I believe this error 65, as per the OpenLDAP docs, is:
H.35. objectClassViolation (65)
Indicates that the entry violates object class restrictions.
The value I am specifying for the attribute is 20111004164129Z
I have also tried to first add an objectClass attribute value to an existing entry with value ‘x-sdids-enPortal’, and then add the ‘x-sdids-passwordExpirationTime’ attribute value, with the same outcome.
Thanks,
