Has any work been done towards supporting Apple OS X ldap schema in 389? It
seems like this is the latest OpenLDAP schema for Apple:

Does anyone know of tools that would populate the various apple specific
entries like apple-generateduid?
Thanks!
One of the things pushing me down this road is that with Mountain Lion,
apparently accessing certain System Prefences would crash if the user didn't
have a "GeneratedUID" attribute. See this for details:
https://discussions.apple.com/message/2070212
This highlights the crazy balkanization with LDAP that drives me bonkers. So
the idea of every user having a UUID (which is what GeneratedUID is) seems
like a reasonable idea and might be useful in general for all users. But we
end up with an "apple-user" schema with an "apple-generateduid" attribute that
will clearly be apple specific.
Apparently there is an RFC for an "entryUUID" attribute:
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4530
Which seems like an interesting idea. Did this get anywhere?
Apparently there is an opends plugin:
