Thomas,
You can do a few things by modifying dnary.mdb. For example IAS (for your
protection) does not log a few of the attributes in the log files since it
considers them to be sensitive (like passwords and keys). You can enable
logging for such items at your own risk. You can add conditions and remove
conditions or do the same with profile elements (you can do so selectively
for Proxy Processing or RAP policies).
You need not use dnary changes to add new attributes to RAP since you can
use the "Vendor-Specific" attribute in RAP->Profile->Advanced to customize
what you want to send.
You should be aware that some of the attributes in dnary.mdb have custom
handling in code and you may not always get what you expect when you modify
it yourself.
And always backup ias.mdb and dnary.mdb before you do any changes by hand.
Thanks, Manju
