Unfortunately, I don't know, and the SAP guy who installed it doesn't
remember either.

Ken:

Do you recall which version of the SAP portal it was that made the
schema changes?  I'm asking since we are testing the SAP portal against
AD in our lab with our SAP folks.  I know that the initial version that
they came to us with required a schema change (version 5?) and before we
got it set up they came back with the newer version that supposedly did
not require a change.  IIRC that was version 6.

Well side by side we see:

MS UID

dn: CN=uid,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=X
changetype: ntdsSchemaAdd
objectClass: attributeSchema
ldapDisplayName: uid
adminDisplayName: uid
adminDescription: A user ID.
attributeId: 0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.1
attributeSyntax: 2.5.5.12
omSyntax: 64
isSingleValued: FALSE
systemOnly: FALSE
searchFlags: 8
schemaIdGuid:: oPywC4ken0KQGhQTiU2fWQ==
attributeSecurityGuid:: Qi+6WaJ50BGQIADAT8LTzw==
showInAdvancedViewOnly: FALSE
systemFlags: 0



SAP UID

dn: CN=uid,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=adstest,DC=kimball,DC=com
changetype: add
adminDisplayName: uid
attributeID:
1.2.840.113556.1.4.7000.233.28688.28684.8.464850.1724825.154498.1299246.
15
attributeSyntax: 2.5.5.4
cn: uid
instanceType: 4
isSingleValued: TRUE
lDAPDisplayName: uid
distinguishedName:
CN=uid,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=adstest,DC=kimball,DC=com
objectCategory:
CN=Attribute-Schema,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=adstest,DC=kimball,DC=
com
objectClass: attributeSchema
objectGUID:: f1Sz+++ZY0eIH7t1mStJIA==
oMSyntax: 20
name: uid
schemaIDGUID:: Qy93MDGWsEqRfKr837RfzA==
showInAdvancedViewOnly: TRUE



The main diffs being

O attributeSyntax/omsyntax - ci unicode string for MS, ci string for SAP
-
SAP shouldn't have an issue unless someone uses some multibytes in the
uid.

O schemaIDGuid - shouldn't be an issue unless there are property sets
involved for security

O attributeID - if SAP uses the ldapdisplayname in class definitions
instead of the attributeIDs they should be ok.

O MS is multi-valued, SAP is single valued - This could be painful if
using ADSI due to the difference in how it handles mv versus sv, but if
using LDAP this shouldn't be too bad, just would only use the first
value in the attribute.



Definitely there are points that could cause pain but wouldn't expect it
would be overly difficult for SAP to correct and use the MS definition
versus theirs. Unless they use UID as a unique identifier within the
database in which case the multi-value could cause some serious key
issues.

Thanks Joe, I saw that (rare for me lately).  Just curious if SAP and

I would expect it would really dork it up pretty well... 

However there are two compensating things.

1. SAP shouldn't have done this. Ok so that isn't really a compensating
factor but they really shouldn't have! 2. He already said that they
aren't using it so breaking SAP doesn't matter. "Now for the part I
don't know: how do I fix it? The SAP portal was tested, but was
back-burned indefinately, so I don't have to worry about breaking it."

Great, you have to love that! ~Eric have them fix their sheet!

Here is a little article about defuncting attribs/classes so you can
learn about it

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/ad/ad/d
isab
ling_existing_classes_and_attributes.asp


Unfortunately, defuncting is something you can only do in an FFL 2K3
forest... Or you can delete stuff but I think you have to be pre-W2K
SP2. OEM will definitely let you do it. Robbie published a nice little
article on this a ways back. MS got pissed and made it so you couldn't
do it any more... 

However I think you should be able to rename that attribute without any
major issue. However, I think I will wait for ~Eric to catch up with
this thread to say go for it!

The rename LDIF file would look something like

dn: CN=uid,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=X
changetype: modify
replace: lDAPDisplayName
lDAPDisplayName: OLDSAPuid
-

dn: CN=uid,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=X
changetype: modrdn
newrdn: cn=OLDSAPuid
deleteoldrdn: 1



If any of the SAP people are out there listening or for anyone modifying
the schema, as a matter of fact, for their own apps... Think about using
names and ldapDisplayNames unique to your company, MS will let you
register a name...

No, that's why I said the error from adprep was misleading. The add of
the uid attribute silently failed, but then the add of the inetorgperson
person fails because OID 0.9.2342.19200300.100.1.1 isn't in the schema.

A little cruising in adsiedit shows a "delete" option for
CN=uid,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,... But I'm over my head here, and I'm
somewhat hesitant to jack around without fully understanding what the
ramifications are.

So you didn't see an error higher up in sch18 on this entry

# Schema NC changes

Do you have that in your directory now in a mangled format? I would
guess not since the inetOrgPerson is referring to it by attributeID and
not by name... But it seems you should have gotten an error on the
import then when you hit it versus getting further down...

For the sake of completeness can you give us the error that you're
getting? That way we know what element is failing on import.

I attempted to run adprep /forestprep in my test forest, only to have it
fail with a cryptic (and misleading, as it turns out) error recorded in
it's log.

Googling the error text lead me to a post by a MS support guy who has
written a script that will hash a schema update LDIF file against a
schema dump, and warn you of any conflicts (You'd think adprep maybe
should do this BEFORE it starts upgrading the schema...)

Anyway, the problem stems from extending the schema for SAP's portal
product which created this attribute:

dn: CN=uid,CN=Schema,CN=Configuration,DC=adstest,DC=kimball,DC=com
changetype: add
adminDisplayName: uid
attributeID: 
 
1.2.840.113556.1.4.7000.233.28688.28684.8.464850.1724825.154498.1299246.

uSNCreated: 705240
whenChanged: 20021002184940.0Z
whenCreated: 20021002184940.0Z

Now for the part I don't know: how do I fix it? The SAP portal was
tested, but was back-burned indefinately, so I don't have to worry about
breaking it.
