Attribute Renaming Property

In Directory Proxy Server 5, attribute renaming is defined by the ids-proxy-sch-RenameAttribute object class. This object uses the ids-proxy-con-server-attr-name and ids-proxy-con-client-attr-name attributes to specify which attributes must be renamed by Directory Proxy Server.

The attribute renaming functionality is replaced in Directory Proxy Server 6 by the attr-name-mappings property of an LDAP data source. This property is multi-valued, and takes values of the form client-attribute-name#server-attribute-name. In a client request, Directory Proxy Server renames the client-attribute-name to the server-attribute-name. In a response, Directory Proxy Server renames the server-attribute-name to the client-attribute-name.

To configure this property, use the following command:

$ dpconf set-ldap-data-source-prop data-source-name \
 attr-name-mappings:client-attribute-name#server-attribute-name
