Andrew, you know that whilst you can create a user with samba-tool,
even adding the RFC2307 attributes whilst creating the user, you cannot
add the RFC2307 atrributes to a user created on ADUC with samba-tool,
you also cannot change individual attributes with samba-tool.
You also know that I proposed patches to allow samba-tool to add the
RFC2307 attributes and they came to nothing.
I even told you that Windows 10 doesn't have IDMU, so there is no way
to add RFC2307 attributes from win10, apart from attribute by attibute.
What do suggest now ?
