[Samba] Samba 4 , ful list of LDAP-style attributes

[Mario Pio Russo]

Thanks Sven, good Idea

let's see if i am getting this right:

1) use MS ADSI editor to add few more attributes to the "users" class
2) use ldapmodify from my ubuntu server to populate those attributes

would that work?

You can add custom attributes (and classes) via Microsoft's ADSI editor
like on any AD-based domain just fine. I'm not sure whether there's a
"samba native" method for this that actually works.

I wouldn't abuse any existing attributes, because you won't know which
software will expect it to work as documented (and might even overwrite
your data).
