All,
I am migrating an LDAP server off of Netscape I-Planet to Fedora Directory Server 1.0.4. I am having some issues with ldapmodify in that the command that worked in I-Planet 5.0 to do adds, modifiess, and deletes from the same run doesn't seem to work in Fedora DS.
With I-Planet:
ldapmodify -a -c -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w xxxxx -f updates.ldif
would take updates.ldif and do the adds, modifies, and deletions that were in the ldif all in one run.
However, to do the same thing in Fedora DS, I find that I am having to do:
ldapmodify -c -x -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w xxxxx -f updates.ldif
and then
ldapmodify -a -c -x -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w xxxxx -f updates.ldif
So I guess I wondering if there is a way to get one iteration of ldapmodify to handle changes, adds, and deletes as the I-Planet version did.
Thanks!
Are you sure you are running a Netscape/Mozilla/FedoraDS ldapmodify and not an OpenLDAP ldapmodify ?

I'm not sure. In the former case, you're probably using either the Solaris supplied ldapmodify or the mozldap 5.x ldapmodify. In the latter case, you're using OpenLDAP ldapmodify (because of the -x argument, I'm assuming). It's possible that the different ldapmodify clients have different behaviors. You might try /opt/fedora-ds/shared/bin/ldapmodify which is the mozldap 6.x one.
Thanks!

Using /opt/fedora-ds/shared/bin/ldapmodify works a lot better than /usr/bin/ldapmodify. ;P
Thanks all!
