file does not have any illegal characters (specifically invisible character from copying off
the web). To make sure everything updated properly, open ConsoleOne and go the
“Schema Manager” located under the “Tools” menu and look for your classes and
attributes. After you have updated the schema

server)
2. Right click and select “Properties”
3. Select the “Attribute Mappings” tab
4. Find the entries for UID/uidNumber and GID/groupID
5. Delete both of these mappings.
