6.19.3 How the Rule Works

This rule places User objects in the correct department containers depending upon what value is
stored in the OU attribute. If a User object needs to be placed and has the OU attribute available,
then the User object is place in the uid=unique name,ou=value of OU attribute,dest-base.
The dest-base is a local variable. The DN must be the relative root path of the department containers.
It can be an organization or an organizational unit. The value stored in the OU attribute must be the
name of a child container of the dest-base local variable.
