Yes, that should work.
Please, check if you have the object "Account" in you Edir because when I
added this object to mime I stopped receiving the object class violation
error when using ldapadd.
This object is metioned in a documentation from Novell (the name of the file
is a020602.pf. I´ll send it to you in private). Probably this is not what is
causing the error because this document talks about authenticating system
users and you already got it working, but I don´t think it´s a wast of time
trying that.

I can´t install Edir here (at work) but I´ll install it at home and see what
I can get with your help.
