Re: ldapmodify versus ldapadd

Following up to my own post, I think the best option is to construct
my LDIF file with a series of delete and add tuples.

For example:

dn: uid=abc,o=mydomain.com
changetype: delete

dn: uid=abc,o=mydomain.com
changetype: add
objectclass: top
....

Then I need to use ldapadd with the -c option, so if the delete
fails for a new entry, the LDIF file will continue to be loaded.

It's ugly, but I guess it will work (slowly.)

Anyone got a better idea?
