/* nextfreeuid */
=== nextfreeuid ===
The entry '''<code>cn=nextfreeuid,ou=administration,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org''' </code> stores the next free UID (Unique Identifier). The UID is unique over the whole directory and is enforced through the directory and is incremented by one. <source lang="ldif">dn: cn=nextfreeuid,ou=administration,dc=stoney-cloud,dc=org objectclass: sstNextFreeUID cn: nextfreeuid uid: 3724591 uidNumber: 3724591</source>
Before using this attribute <code>uidNumber</code>, you need to be sure, that your directory server actually supports atomic increments (LDAP Modify-Increment). See [https://www.iana.org/assignments/ldap-parameters/ldap-parameters.xhtml Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Parameters] and [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4525 Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) Modify-Increment Extension (RFC4525)].
