Hi,
I'm looking for a bit of inspiration...

I have a number of linux boxes using winbind to provide UNIX system users from a Win2008R2 Active Directory domain. I'm using winbind's RID idmap backend thing to provide consistent UNIX UIDs and GIDs across multiple servers.. For non-windows people, the RID is a 32 bit integer which uniquely identifies an object in a domain, and forms the right-most part of the Active Directory forest-wide SID.

A SID looks like:
S-1-5-21-993118751-601841214-1674189692-1134

The RID, in the above case, is 1134.

My UNIX UIDs are always (RID + 1000).

I want my virtual_uid_maps to fetch, from Active Directory using table_ldap, something like:

((RID derived from the objectSID attribute) + 1000).

I would also like my virtual_mailbox_maps to fetch, from Active Directory using table_ldap, something like:
(primaryGroupID attribute)/(samaccountname attribute)/inbox

Can the postfix LDAP client do maths and/or concatenate retrieved attributes or should I be doing that elsewhere and storing the results as new attributes?

Thanks for your help,
Aaron
