[profile import][bdc] mapped property issue

Hi

been trying to import users from BDC (which are working fine now, at least in classic bdc webparts), but i can't manage to make it get my users from my table in SQL Server.

the thing is, when i go to my ssp-> user profiles -> display profile properties, a list of properties already exist and all i need is to map what i want and add what i still need.
the ones i don't need, I must put them in 'not mapped' state. Problem is 'proxy adress' can't be changed or even validate because it says "length must be an integer and in the range (1-400)" and the value is set to 2048 and can't be changed.

That's why the log show me the crawl don't pass.

is it a bug ? any clue on how to solve that ?

edit -> i've seen that the sdk helper show how to create/edit everything in the profile.
only question would be: can it be done within moss directly without going through c# code ...
and even when doing that, if i changed any profile in Moss, will it be changed in my DB ? i don't think so ...

ok, gess there is no answer yet on the subject.
anyway, it have to be through membershipprovider, found many tutorials about that, like here
but they always go with the aspnet_regsql.exe, which keeps data in its own way, not mine, with my own database, columns, etc.
so right now i know how to make my own custom membershipprovider (thanks to this french tuto for exemple), i know how to make MOSS use an
aspnet_regsql membershipprovider, what i need now is a mix between both.

the issue is: when i create my own membershipprovider, it's comes like a c# class, which derive from MembershipProvider. how am i supposed to bring that in a MOSS site, where every little thing is stored in sql server and is not openable with VS ?

not desperate yet, i manage to find an issue. using AD, grabbing the login in a page, and displaying the correct profil then using either bdc (display) or custom page with datagridview or else (modify). still working on it though.
