ok, it sounds like what I think it is. When you created the existing
users, they were not added with the eduPerson objectclass since the
schema didn't exist in FDS, so now only new users will
automatically get it assuming your front end provides it, not sure
what you are using since you said its not dirsrv-admin, you must have
a way of adding new users, etc. Thats why its best to add the schema
to FDS first, then start creating new users.
I'm tinkering with new schema as well as including the standard
eduPerson and was hoping to avoid having to strip out all the data and
then repopulate each time I make a minor change to the schema. I'm
populating it from a large Active Directory by script, which already has
quite a long run time.
But I don't have any users in the directory at all yet, which is why I
was a bit surprised at the behaviour. I thought at least adding new
users with a new schema wouldn't be a problem. I guess if that is out
the next thing I need to check is what happens if I add a new 'may'
field to an existing schema - will it force me to drop all the old data
to install that, too.
The way I understand it, the schema only makes it possible for an
ldap server to allow the extra feature, but its the user (object) that
has its necessary objectclasses assigned to it, for each objectclass,
you can assign the values and attributes. For example: samba
requires adding the samba schema into FDS, then each user needs to
have the "sambasamaccount" objectclass which has numerous values that
samba accounts use.
I was new with ldap not long ago too, hope this helps..
:-) Thanks

I'm not running the admin server. Restarting dirsrv doesn't
appear
to do it. If it should normally, I guess I've got
something else
wrong...

Hi,
How do I persuade fedora-ds to load new schema?
Restarting the
slapd daemon doesn't seem to do it. Completing
removing a
directory and then recreating it does, but I don't
want to
have to
keep doing that if possible...
Thanks
