Question adding an ldap field


hi, i hope i can make this clear as im not quite sure how to explain what i want/trying to to.

here goes,

in ldap you get the diffrent field types such as DN, objectClass, OU and other s like street, postalCode etc.

well i need one called 'gPLink'. i have been trying to edit my ldap core and samba3 schema files trying to add this field but in all honesty even with a little google ing i have no idea what i am doing within the schema files as i have never tutched them before.

i hope thats crear anough.

i will be extreamly greatfull for any input on this as its something i have been wanting to try and do for over a year and have only just got round to doing

Put something like this:
Code:
attributetype ( 1.3.6.1.4.1.3.5.1.1200
        NAME 'gPLink'
        DESC 'whatever you want'
        EQUALITY caseIgnoreMatch
        SUBSTR caseIgnoreSubstringsMatch
        SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15
        SINGLE-VALUE )
If you want to allow more than one gPLink per entry, leave out SINGLE-VALUE.

Now you just have to add "gPLink" to the "MAY" or "MUST" section of the declaration for the objectClass that it should belong to. (The attributes in those sections are separated by "$".)
