[Fedora-directory-users] ldapmodify and Fedora DS migration

[Scott Lacy]

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!
