Description
The ability to store the defined custom fields in: ldapprov.conf.inc into the ldap using the "Basic LDAP attributes:" template
ldapprov.module Line #1588
//Add Support for storring the custom fields into ldap
foreach(ldapprov_custom_elements() as $field_name => $field) {
$ldap_vars['!'.$field_name] = $data['custom_'.$field_name];
}I fixed it like this for the time being but is it possible to integrate this into the module or is there some other way to do this?
#1
There is no ldapprov.conf.inc file any more in the dev version. Custom fields are configurable from the module settings page.
#2
Can someone provide a bit more detail on how to add custom fields? For backwards compatibility reasons, I need to add a custom salted password field to LDAP that users should not see or be able to edit. I need the salted password to be stored when a user gets created and updated if a user changes their password. I have a handle on getting the password and salting it the way I need it, but I'm not sure how/where I go about adding it to LDAP.

In the 6.x.-1.0-beta1 release you goto: /admin/settings/ldap/ldapprov
There you will find a fieldset: "Registration form" with "Custom elements" there you can add a custom field to the registration form:
sponsor|type=>textfield|title=>Sponsor POC|weigth=>4|size=>64|maxlemgth=>64|required=>1|description=>Sponsor Point of Contact.And than you add the following to the "LDAP attributes"
<ldapattribute_name>: !custom_sponsorAs you can see the field called !custom_<custom name>
