Re: LDAP import

[Herb Burnswell <herbert.burnswell@xxxxxxxxx>]

Dustin thanks for the reply.

I would need everything in:

o=companyA dc=hq,dc=example,dc=com

Everything appears to be imported as needed except the password issue.  If I reset the passwords in the new implementation it's fine but that won't work with 100's of users.

Is this:

ldapsearch -b "o=companyA" -D "dc=hq,dc=example,dc=com" -h original_system > output.ldif
an acceptable way of exporting everything including passwords for users or is there a better way?
Thanks again,
Herb 

Dustin Rice:

Well, schema would be like, the list of fields whereas it looks like you 

might be doing a dump/load of users/groups?

All,

I'm attempting to import an LDAP schema (is that the correct term?) from one LDAP implementation to another and it appears that I may be doing it incorrectly.  I created a ldif file for import as:

ldapsearch -b "o=companyA" -D "dc=hq,dc=example,dc=com" -h original_system > output.ldif

I then used the GUI in the new LDAP implementation to import the ldif file.  Everything seemed to work find as I have the entire tree but there appears to be a problem with passwords.

Am I missing the passwords for users with this export to ldif file?  What is the proper procedure to import all information from a schema (is that the correct term?) to import into a new LDAP implementation?

Thanks in advance for any assistance,

Herb
