Help with importing Asterisk LDAP Schema into FreeIPA Server.

[r0 nam1]

Hi,
    I'm currently attempting to run my asterisk instance and testing instance in realtime mode with the database being my FreeIPA instance. To do this I've looked at every thread and determined that the OpenLDAP structure Asterisk Provides and the 389 structure FreeIPA uses are different. I am not sure how different, so I have no clue how to translate it.

I also have two ways of importing it, (I think), either with ldapadd, or by moving the ldif file to a certain directory and restarting the service, issue with that second approach is that I'm not sure what will happen if the ldif file isn't valid. I'll post what the asterisk source provides:

https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/LDAP+Realtime+Driver

The ldif and schema file are both on that page, I'm not looking for somebody to translate if it's to much work, but I simply want to know how to. Seems like a valuable skill to have.

I would do it online. This way all IPA servers will get the updated
schema without having to ship files around which is easy to forget to do
in the future.
