I'd like to request that the Winsync functionality have the option to be a little more configurable about what it syncs and how it is synced over.
Specifically in my case, we have users created in AD automatically by our IDMS system and the RFC2307 attributes (uid, uidNumber, gidNumber, loginShell, unixHomeDirectory (the AD place to hold homeDirectory), and gecos) are also populated with specific values based on the person's function. I'd like to be able to sync these attributes over (or map them somehow), in particular the uid, uidNumber and gidNumber. In my case, the uid is not the same value as the sAMAccountName.
I'd also like the ability to specify different arbitrary attributes to get synced over. We have certain fields that are unique to accounts that would be useful in our case.

This should be handled by the POSIX Winsync functionality added in 1.2.11.12. https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/426 http://port389.org/wiki/WinSync_Posix
I'd like to be able to sync these attributes over (or map them somehow), in particular the uid, uidNumber and gidNumber.
uidNumber and gidNumber are handled by the posix winsync plugin.
In my case, the uid is not the same value as the sAMAccountName.
So the AD entry has both the posix uid attribute and the samAccountName, and they are different? Ok, we need some sort of option to tell winsync and posix winsync to use the AD posix uid attribute for the uid instead of samAccountName.
There are already several tickets for this. See https://fedorahosted.org/389/report/16
