RE: Mapping user group ID to user group name in Directory Server

You can use ldapexplorer tool (cross platform sfw), it's possible to create template for posix account.
or ldapadmin (win sfw)

I use fedora-ds, you can create posix account directly by right click in the admin console.
it's not the case with redhat directory server?

Thank you for the link.

I wasn't too clear on this, but the problem I'm having is more RH Directory
Server related. I'm familar with how to add/modify users and groups on
linux, but getting DS to manage these was not very intuitive.

After playing around some more I found that when adding a group I need to
manually specify that it is a posix group. Adding a user (and a
corresponding group) using DS seems to be a multi-step process, and is thus
quite time consuming.

Is there a way to create templates/shortcuts for posix user/group management
in RH DS?
