Duplicate User Names

Hello,

I'm pretty new to kolab (and to LDAP). So far we had system
accounts on 
the mailserver and users had a uniqe uid.

We have got several users with common firstnames and also
common
family names. How can I create unique objects for kolab ?
Using the field 'Unique Identity' didn't help, I still get:

LDAP Error: could not add object cn=Helga
Mayer,dc=uni-hohenheim,dc=de: 
Already exists

Regards
Helga Mayer

That's a known problem, see e.g.:
http
s://www.intevation.de/roundup/kolab/issue903
http
s://www.intevation.de/roundup/kolab/issue671
perhaps this one:
http
s://www.intevation.de/roundup/kolab/issue182

Well you get it,  you're not the only one asking for this,
and if I'm not 
mistaken it be will taken care of in the next major release
(3.x) of kolab.
