Each services uses a standard object class (defined by RFC

2307)

You can remap any of these attributes to alternate attributes

Do you want to remap any of the standard RFC 2307 attributes?

Enter whether or not you want to remap the standard object class

attributes to alternate attributes. You need to do this if your user and

group data do not conform to the object classes deﬁned in RFC 2307,

posixAccount, posixGroup, shadowAccount, and so forth.

You can remap the attributes for any of the supported services: passwd,

shadow passwd, group, PAM, netgroup, rpc, protocols, networks, hosts,

automount and services. Select the service you want to remap. Then

select the attribute you want to remap and enter the new attribute

name. For example, you might map the standard UNIX user id number

attribute uidnumber to an employeeID attribute.

By default, LDAP-UX Client Services uses the RFC2307-bis automount

schema. The nisObject automount schema can also be used if

conﬁgured via attribute mappings.

Use the following steps if you want to remap the automount attributes to

the nisObject automount attributes:

1. Enter yes for the following question:

Do you want to remap any of the standard RFC 2307

attributes? [yes]: yes

2. If you want to select the automount service, then enter 11 for the

following question and press the return key:

Specify the service you want to map? [0]:11

3. Next, it will take you to the screen which shows you the following

information:
