Mapping AD and eDirectory attributes

Novell Cool Solutions: Question & Answer

Posted: 21 Apr 2005

Q:
I am attempting to map these two attributes: accountExpires (AD) and loginExpirationTime (eDir). Is there any easier way, other than running an external java app from an xslt stylesheet, to convert an expiration date being set in an eDirectory tree and have the value flow down to AD?

A:
Read this TID, under the behavior section:

After mapping both attributes, you are required to modify the value using the stylesheet to ensure both date are the same, otherwise your client may scream ... ;)
