Address Book now showing all LDAP attributes

The Address Book does not provide access to all LDAP attributes. For example
homePhone
homePostalAddress
labeledURI
are some of the fields currently left out. It would be nice if it was possible to configure the schema mapping, similar to thunderbird which allows the mapping off all the field it know about to corresponding LDAP attributes. Also inetOrgPerson, even though it is the defacto standard is rather due for redesign.
I am just wondering if anybody else if having this problem and if they found a solution?

the script did not work for me
python fixBirthdays
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "fixBirthdays", line 6, in <module>
import AddressBook
ImportError: No module named AddressBook
further, the particular one vcard that is misbehaving - i exported it, and opened in Tedit.
this is what isee for the date field.
item1.X-ABDATE;type=pref:2003-06-17
year is not negative either.
i unchecked and checked birthday calendar in iCal. exited iCal after uncheck, relaunched iCal and checked that option.
no show of the birthdate.
stumped.

LDAP attribute for user's last login time?

Hi all,
Is there an LDAP attribute that I could return (via an "ldapsearch" query) that would contain the user's last login time?
We have:
Directory Server Version: 5.2_Patch_2 ; Build number: 2004.107.0034
other...
Identity Server 2004Q2
sparc-sun-solaris2.9
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
If you need this info, you will have to create a password policy that log last logon time.
But be carefull with this function, it can create a lot of cpu load.

Getting operational ldap attributes using amSDK

Is there any way to get operational ldap attributes of a user? I am trying to get "passwordexpirationtime" attribute.

tried getAttributesFromDataStore, that too does not return anything..
Set attr = new HashSet();
attr.add("passwordexpirationtime");
Map exptime = amUser.getAttributesFromDataStore(attr);
is this supported?

Access LDAP attribute from Webmail

Hi there,
We need to do some customizations on webmail.
One of the things we want to do is to be able to read and write an ldap attribute outside the multivalue attribute NSWMEXTENDEDUSERPREFS.
I've seen on "Webmail Express Customization Guide" that we can load on http startup other external attributes using a command like:
configutil -l -o service.http.extrauserldapattrs -v myattribute:w
on which the :w at the end means that webmail could have write access to the attribute. (Pag 71 of W.E.C. Guide)
I've done that, but the problem is that if I try to write a new value on the attribute, the value is created on the NSWMEXTENDEDUSERPREFS as myattribute=value
So .. It reads from one side but write to another! Any ideas how to write on the myattribute directly from webmail interface?!
Thanks,
Sergio Sousa

Hi,
have you allready tryed to read the attribute directly from the BOL in the implementation class of the view, without creating any new context node? Maybe this coding might help you:
DATA: lr_entity        TYPE REF TO cl_crm_bol_entity,
DATA: lv_collection TYPE REF TO if_bol_bo_col.
DATA: lv_cat type string.
lr_entity ?= me->typed_context->BTAdminH->collection_wrapper->get_current( ).
TRY.
lv_collection = lr_entity->get_related_entities( iv_relation_name = 'BTHeaderActivityExt' ).
   CATCH cx_sy_ref_is_initial.
ENDTRY.
      lr_entity ?= lv_collection->get_current( ).
CALL METHOD lr_entity->if_bol_bo_property_access~get_property_as_string
    EXPORTING
      iv_attr_name = 'CATEGORY'
    RECEIVING
      rv_result    = lv_cat.

Provision user to a resource when a LDAP attribute is set to true by active

HI,
I have the following requirement
When a particular attribute in LDAP is set to true then we have to pick it by the active sync process and provision the user in another resource.
Can any one let me know how to go about this.

I'd do it like this:
Create a business role "SomeRole" that includes an IT-Role that includes the target resource.
In the activeSync form, assign this role depending on the LDAP attribute:
<Field name='waveset.roles'>
<Expansion>
 <cond>
 <eq>
 <ref>accounts[LDAP].thisParticularAttribute</ref>
 <s>true</s>
 </eq>
 <s>SomeRole</s> 
 <ref>waveset.roles</ref>
 </cond>
</Expansion>
</Field>

How to retrieve only LDAP attributes

Any way to retrieve only the available LDAP attributes?
I want to display all the available LDAP attributes on the UI (like sn, cn, etc.) and let user select which ones he want to retrieve.
Thanks.

This would be a function of building an ldapsearch in your code and stating the attributes you want returned as input from the user. Its better to know up front what attributes are available from the ldap based on access rights, and make that static, instead of retrieving them everytime someone opens a web page. If you run an ldapsearch and state the attributes you want returned you will only get those back.

Reading multivalued attribute

Hi,
I have a multivalued attribute defined in LDAP and was synchronized to plumtree. After synchroinzation, the attribute with multiple values came in to plumtree and I am able to see the values of the attribute by clicking on user profile. But when I try to read the attribute using the following query only the last value is coming up.
Here is the query I am using.
IPortletContext portletContext = PortletContextFactory.createPortletContext(request, response);IPortletRequest portletRequest = portletContext.getRequest(); out.write("locationString = " + portletRequest.getSettingValue(SettingType.UserInfo,"ttcmytlocation"));
In the profile of the user ttcmytlocation attribute has multiple values, but reading returns only the last value. Is there any other way to query the values? Please help!!
Thanks.

Customizing default LDAP attributes. Is it possible?

Hello,
Does anybody knows if there is a way to give default LDAP attributes (such mail, mailAlternateAddress, and so on...) write permissions?
There is some notes explaining how to customize 'extra' LDAP attributes, but nothing about default ones.
TIA,
Carlos.

What are you trying to achieve? The attributes you're talking about are there to be written by the admin user(s) for provisioning users. If you're having problems writing them, what user do you use?

LDAP Attribute for POP3 access

Dear folks,
In SUN JES subscriber LDAP information, is there any LDAP subscriber LDAP attribute that indicates the subscriber having access to POP3?
If there is, what kind/type of value can it be ?
Thanks,
T Dang

Hi,
For future reference, please always provide the version of messaging server you are using. (./imsimta version)
With regards to your question, POP access is provided unless it is denied (assuming that POP daemon is enabled). Is there a user who is being denied and you are trying to work out why?
The LDAP attribute which restricts access to POP/IMAP/HTTP access of the store is mailallowedserviceaccess

Which LDAP attribute is utilized by CertStore to retrive certifications?

Hi
thank you for reading my post
I find that CertStore and LDAPCertStoreParameters and X509CertSelector and X509CRLSelector can be used to extract certifications from LDAP.
What i can not figure out is,
which LDAP attribute uses by these class to extract certifications?
for example we have person class in LDAP which one of its attribute can be userCertificate, how does these class figure out what is name of these attribute?
maybe they uses some other mechanism, and my assumption are not correct?
Thanks

Hi
Thank you for your reply.
Imagine that i have the following requirement, what could be possible steps to implement it?
I need to check and see whether a digital certification belongs to a user or not.
user will gives it uid and digital certification.
here is one way that i have in my mind:
-Search the LDAP for that user.
-Extract the userCertificate attribute as binary
-Create a X509 certificate from it
-Compare it with what user provides.
Is it a good way?
Does all of the above steps are do-able?
Do you have suggestion to improve the procedure or make it more standard ?
Thanks

hi,
U r retriving the elements by tag name.So it just chks the tag name ie.<book> & gives u array of elements.But u need retrive d attribute of <book> tag itself.

What my program do is to get the encoding of XML files and convert them to UTF-8 encoding files, while I need this "encoding" information of the original XML document thus I can convert...
After reading specifications and JDOM docs, the truth turns to be disappointed, no function is provided to get this information in JDOM level 2(the current released one), while it's promissed that this function will be provided in JDOM level API....
Thanx all for your help and attention!!!

How to read the attribute in mapping..

Hi,
My source XML looks like this
<GLDEBITACCT>
 <VALUE>0545-K-2006605-5500001</VALUE>
 <GLCOMP glorder="0">0545</GLCOMP>
 <GLCOMP glorder="1">K</GLCOMP>
 <GLCOMP glorder="2">2006605</GLCOMP>
 <GLCOMP glorder="3">5500001</GLCOMP>
</GLDEBITACCT>
Where glorder is the attribute of GLCOMP. Now I have requirement to read the attribute ( atleast 2 of them)
I have to map to target field checking the value in glorder="1
For e.g. with above XML, if the value in glorder="1 is K than map value from glorder="2 (2006605) to Target 1.
IF the glorder="1 is P map the value in glorder="2 to Target 2 and goes on for another one
How can i acheive this mapping. When I tried putting the value of glorder, i am not getting anything.
Regards,

Hi,
You can use below UDF. Please make sure to select context parameter while creating UDF. There will be 3 input arguments for this function:
1. GLCOMP (a)
2 @glorder (b)
3 Constant (c) --depending upon the target node
Also conext of attribute @glorder should be same as that of GLCOMP.
//write your code here
for(int i=0;i<a.length;i++)
 if(b.equals("1")&&c[0].equals(a))
 for(int j=0;j<a.length;j++)
 if(b[j].equals("2"))
 result.addValue(a[j].toString());
 break;
For target node target1 use K as 3rd argument, for target node target2 use P and so on.
Let me know how it works.
Regards,
Anirudh.
