AD Schema Extension Question



have a customer that wants to extend the schema to include an attrib for an
auxiliary class attached to the user class. The attribute will be used to
store compressed and encrypted XML code with logon..and is currently used to
store connection details for two applications - (its for an inhouse SSO app).
They have registered the OID etc..Just wondering if there was anything to
consider here? I was thinking DIT size/storage, replication etc...but is
there anything on the actual schema-side that may casue issues in the long
term? I did refer to some AD books for some guidance..and googled but nothing
(other than whats already mentioned here) really stood out.
