Hi,

I've got a problem with my ldap groups running on different systems:
The server is an openexchange system, based on Suse enterprise server 9 SP
3.
It's ldap groups look like that:
newSystem:/etc/openldap # ldapsearch -x cn=mygroup -LLL
dn: cn=mygroup,ou=group,dc=....
gidNumber: 1001
objectClass: top
objectClass: posixGroup
objectClass: groupOfNames
cn: mygroup
member: uid=user1,ou=people,dc=...
member: uid=user2,ou=people,dc=...
...
The client is an UnitedLinux system, it's old (now migrated to the new
system) groups looked like that:
oldSystem:/etc/openldap # ldapsearch -x cn=mygroup -LLL
dn: cn=mygroup,dc=...
cn: mygroup
gidNumber: 1001
memberUid: user1
memberUid: user2
objectClass: top
objectClass: posixGroup
description: mygroup

As you can see the old system uses memberUid, the new one member: syntax.
Any idea how i can tell the client system to use the new syntax?

regards
Alex
