Hope this helps, Matt
Thanks.
Do you mean that it is possbile that the vnc geometry attribute integrated in that LDAP Server ? But I googling for a long time and have nothing useful information about it ..

Hi ,all :
I am a newbie to here and I also install the 389 ds in our company for managering all users account and passwd .
Today , The boss asked me if the ds could set the users vnc screen geometry in the config file . Because the user's computer screen is not the same and have different geometries.
If it could , then we were happy that can solve the user's vnc problem .
Then , I try to search it via Googling , but have not search the useful information about it yet .
I know we can use the ds to set the uid or home directory and so on , can the 389 ds do it ?Or maybe add some atrributes ?
Could someone give me some suggestions about it ?
Thanks in advance ~

What he means is create a custom attribute in DS to hold geometry then write a shell script that does an ldapsearch to get that attribute for the logged in user and either set that as an environment variable that VNC uses upon login or use the shell script to launch VNC with that geometry if it doesn't support environment variables for setting geometry.

I too am a little bit confused about how to create the equivalent of 2 things in NDS
1. Directory map 2. Application attribute
Appreciate any answers...
I had a tough time playing around with openLDAP with source on fedora 7 or so.
