Re: migration scripts

[Gustavo Lozano <glozano@noldata.com>]

Dont know if there are scripts out there...
But the procedure is very simple....

Just create an Ldif file taking every attribute you want to put in the
Ldap.

as Example:

from /etc/passwd:
glozano:x:1000:100:,,,:/home/glozano:/bin/bash

from /etc/shadow
glozano:thecryptpass:11970:0:99999:7:::


So the ldif file should be:

dn:uid=glozano,dc=noldata,dc=com
objectClass:....
objectClass:....
objectClass:.....
ObjectClass:posixAccount
uid:glozano
uidNumber:10000
gidNumber:100
userPassword: {crypt}thecryptpass
homeDirectory:/home/glozano
userShell:/bin/bash


etc....

Just use awk or something like that to generate the ldif file...
after that... ldapadd -f file.ldif
