Hi Christof
For users, I already have:
posixAccount
uidNumber
gidNumber
loginShell
unixHomeDirectory
and for groups:
posixGroup
gidNumber

stored in the directory in the dn of the user or group. We pull out this 
info for our Linux clients using nss-pam-ldapd.

Will this still be OK when the patches are applied?

Cheers,
Steve
