Aliased value of attribute

[aubert@iut-bm.univ-fcomte.fr]

Hello.

I use OpenLDAP since 2 months. I use it to manage users in order to 
authenticate to several applications.
I added an multivalued attribute called "InetServ" which is in charge 
of giving access or not to one or another application or web service. 
Until today this attribute had Distinguished Name 
(1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.12) type. As the name of service can 
change, this solution is not satisfying since dn would become wrong in 
all entries containing the dn of the service.
So I would like to know whether it is possible or not to modify the 
type of this attribute so that it could be an alias pointing to the 
value of an attribute containing the name of the service. Therefore if 
the name of the service change, I am not obliged to change it in all 
entries.

This feature would be very useful.


I hope my question is enough clear.


Thank you for your help.
