Attribute Mappings for X.500 Group Membership Support
If you want to configure X.500 group membership support, you should remap the group member
attribute to member or uniquemember instead of using the default attribute, memberuid.
Perform the following steps for attribute mappings to set up X.500 group membership:
1. Type yes for the following question:
Do you want to remap any of the startdard RFC 2307 attributes? [yes]:
yes
2. Select the group service by entering 3 for the following question and press the return key:
Specify the service you want to map? [0]: 3
3. Next, it will take you to the screen which shows you the following information:
Current Group
attribute names:
1.cn ->[cn] 2.gidnumber
-> [gidnumber] 3.memberuid -> [memberuid] 4.userpassword -> [userPassword]
Specify the attribute you want to map. [0]:
If you want to specify the attribute to map to memberuid, then type 3 for the following
question and press the return key:
Specify the attribute you want to map? [0]: 3
4. Type the member attribute that you want to map to the memberuid attribute and press the
return key:
memberuid —> member
5. Next, it will take you to the screen which shows you the following information:
Current Group.attribute
names:
1.cn ->[cn] 2.gidnumber

NOTE: LDAP-UX supports DN-based (X.500 style) membership syntax. This means that you
do not need to use the memberUid attribute to define the members of a POSIX group. Instead,
you can use either the member or uniqueMember attribute. LDAP-UX can convert from the DN
syntax to the POSIX syntax (an account name).
For Netscape/Red Hat Directory Server, the typical member attribute would be either memberUid,
member or uniqueMember.
