If you put it in any other file, the console will see it as read-only. As a "good" practice, I'd say if you are testing or have schema that changes often (for whatever reason), use 99user.ldif, but once you have a stable schema, put it in a separate file for maintainability. If you are rolling out multiple apps with custom schema in each, it would probably be userful to put separate apps customizations in separate files (i.e. 98mail.ldif, 98cal.ldif, etc). Just makes it easier to keep things straight. - Jeff
