[Fedora-directory-users] Create users using scripting language

[Justin Crawford]

As previously mentioned, you can script calls to command-line utilities such as ldapmodify.  Or, if you prefer, most languages these days have one or more full-featured LDAP libraries.  Some of these libraries depend on external LDAP binaries; these two do not:

Ruby Net/LDAP is a pure ruby LDAP library.  Adding a user with it is shown here:
http://www.gemjack.com/gems/ruby-net-ldap-0.0.4/classes/Net/LDAP.html#M000027

Perl Net::LDAP is a pure perl LDAP library.  Adding a user with it is shown here:
http://search.cpan.org/~gbarr/perl-ldap/lib/Net/LDAP.pod#SYNOPSIS

We use the former; for more than a year in production, it's been bulletproof.

Subject: [Fedora-directory-users] Create users using scripting language
 
Hi,

Somebody know how can I create users using a script language like perl,
python or php? On windows I allways did this with vbscript and ADSI. Is
there a similar way to do this?

Thanks,

Paulo Estrela
