Standard Open Directory Record Types and Attributes

Standard Attributes in User Records
The following table describes the standard attributes found in Open Directory user
records. Use this information when working in the Workgroup Manager Inspector pane
or when mapping user record attributes with Directory Utility (located in Accounts
preferences).
Important: When mapping Mac OS X user attributes to a read/write LDAP directory
domain (an LDAP domain that is not read-only), do not map the RealName and the
rst RecordName attributes to the same LDAP attribute.
For example, do not map both RealName and RecordName to the cn attribute. If
RealName and RecordName are mapped to the same LDAP attribute, problems will
occur when you try to edit the full (long) name or the rst short name in Workgroup
Manager.
