In fact, this script just use a prefix from Microsoft, an then create the
rest of the prefix at random.
It has nothing to do with samba,  as it doesn't connect to the domain to
obtain this prefix:

    'The Microsoft OID Prefix used for the automated OID Generator
    oidPrefix = "1.2.840.113556.1.8000.2554"

As I said, I was able to create the classes and attributes, but they are no
visible in the advanced attributes editor of ADUC

I will give Zentyal a try, but the attributes editor solution would work
better for me. Maybe I will try to create some script to change the
attributes for me, using ldif.

Thanks anyway,
Vladimir.
