adding a custom attribute



Hello,

I want to have an ability add "custom attribute[s]" to my LDAP records.
For example, such an attribute could be sipTelephone, mobile and/or
something else.

I did a little digging. Please advise whether I am on the right track.

My understanding, at present, is that I would have to modify
core.schema [located on my Ubuntu under /etc/ldap/schema ] and perhaps
some other schema files from the same directory.

I found various syntax OIDs. For telephones, for example -
1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.50 should be the right one. There is
another OID for strings - 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15 for UTF-8
coded strings.

Is editing core.schema the correct way to go? I am eagerly looking for advice.

Thank you for reading my question this far. I have been saved twice by
people on this list. Appreciate your help very much.

Sincerely,

Igor Shmukler
