with ldap userdb, you need to omit the userdb_ prefix.

I tried to use an LDAP attribute and mapping it to userdb_acl_globals_only and another try with acl_globals_only. Both attributes were not considered by the lookup. Another try was to use a separate passwd-userdb for this attribute only. When placing the passwd-userdb before the ldap-userdb the ldap attributes are not considered. If the ldap-userdb is placed before the passwd-userdb, the extra attribute is not considered. I think this is a wanted behaviour.
