I have an in production application at our office (Web Calendar) that I

Some of the users in the old program have user id's of $firstname and
they don't work because everyone in the ldap server was setup as
$firstinitial$lasthname.
I have not been sucessful at changing the User ID's in the application
from $firstname to $firstinitial$lastname.

Can you configure the search done by the application ?
If so, it should be possible to retain the single uid per user,
but add a second attribute value with the second name.
Then configure the old applications to search on that attribute
to find users' DNs.
