Yes, it's possible, but not recommended nor supported. In order to get it to work, you'll still need to install OiD initially to reverse engineer the LDAP schemas (if I'm using "schemas" correctly here). There was a website by someone on this list showing how to do that, but I've since lost the link. :(

A co-worker and I got it to work under 9.0.1 by massaging the LDIFs from OiD to get them to import into SunOne. It worked great, but that stupid "supported" clause nailed us -- we're still using ONames.

GL!
