[webmin-l] auto entering attributes LDAP_Useradmin

[Craig W. <cra...@az...>]

I'm having an issue auto entering attributes in LDAP Useradmin when
creating new users - these auto entries simply aren't created though the
objectclass 'apple-user' is added and other samba attributes get
automatically entered. Also, if I manually add these entries below
(longhand - no ${USER} ), the entries are created.

1 - apple-user-homeDirectory, values typically look like

   /Network/Servers/srv1.example.com/NetUsers/administrator

so my auto enter looks like

apple-user-homeDirectory /Network/Servers/srv1.example.com/NetUsers/${USER}

2 - apple-user-homeurl, values typically look like


<home_dir><url>afp://srv1.example.com/NetUsers/</url><path>administrator</path></home_dir>

(actually, it appears that these values are Base64 encoded when saved in
DSA)

so my auto enter looks like

<home_dir><url>afp://srv1.example.com/NetUsers/</url><path>${USER}</path></home_dir>

so it leaves me wondering if I somehow need to escape these auto entries
so they process properly in your perl scripts.

Suggestions?
