IPrint 1.1 LDAP Sync Doesn't Change Attributes

[gmurphybc]

Hi All

We have an IPrint 1.1 appliance that we sync with our Edirectory. We use Papercut that uses a swipe card to release print jobs at the printer. I have configured the IPrint LDAP sync to sync our card ID attribute in Edirectory to the lastname attribute in the IPrint tree and then configure Papercut to get the card ID from the lastname attribute. This works fine when new users are created but if a user is issued with a new card and we modify the card ID in Edirectory and then run an IPrint LDAP sync it states that it has modified the user but never actually changes the lastname attribute. We then must manually change the lastname attribute to their new card ID which for hundreds of users is a big issue.

If anyone can assist it would be much appreciated.

1.1 is not longer supported. I'd advise to install 2.1 and see if same
problem exist.
