eduPerson AD Property Sheet

The eduPerson Directory Schema has been designed by the EDUCAUSE/Internet2 task force and is the basis for the operation of the Shibboleth AAI middleware. The eduPerson schema can be supported on any LDAP Directory platform, including Microsoft Active Directory.

After porting eduPerson into Active Directory, one needs to be able to edit the respective attributes. Of course, this can be done with advanced tools like the ADSIedit tool, however, it is nicer if an inexperienced administrator can use the default editing tool "Active Directory Users and Computers" (a Microsoft MMC snap-in). This is exactly what this little editor does: it extends the "Property Sheet" pages that this snap-in displays so that the administrator can edit eduPerson attributes for users.
