samba - Dec 2002 - LDAP - adding info to database

I have installed openldap and the samba.idealx.org ldap configuration
and scripts, and now I have ldap authentication working wonderfully
well.
I'd like to be able to use the same ldap user database for other info
such as phone numbers, email, etc, but I don't know how to add it or
whether it is a good idea. Anyone done this?

Work's fine here. Just use the inetOrgPerson-Attributes. On the
OpenLDAP-FAQ-Site you can find some informations about this.

We use LDAP as source for Samba-Accounts, Posix-Accounts, addressbook
and for IMAP/POP-Accounts, mailquotas and mail- & forwarding-addresses
