Thanks Bernhard.

A follow-up if you don't mind...

Is there a resource that I can use to determine which of the object classes are \
required for the normal function of OpenAM and its authentication modules, or do I \
need to dig through the source code of each to determine that?

No at all ... the defaults shown when configuring a data store are 'proposals'.

I would say it's more then recommended ... it's best pratice to configure only the \
attributes/objectclasses needed.
