Re: [webmin-l] Failed to save user : Failed to modify user in LDAP database : attribute 'sn' not allowed

[Jamie C. <jca...@we...>]

It looks like you are using an object class that requires the 'sn'
attribute. To make sure it is set, on the Module Config page make sure
the 'Show fields for given name and surname?' option is enabled, so that
a field for surname will appear when editing a user.
