Adding an attribute using the language subtype

About this task

The PingDirectory server provides support for attributes using language subtypes. The operation must specifically match the subtype for successful operation. Any non-ASCII characters must be in UTF-8 format.

Steps

  1. Run the ldapmodify tool from the command line interface.

  2. Specify the modification using changetype:modify.

  3. Specify which attributes to add using the add option.

    Example:

    In this example, we add another value for the lang attribute.

    $ bin/ldapmodify -h server.example.com -p 389 -w password
dn: uid=user.2004,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com
changetype: modify
add: postalAddress; lang-ko
postalAddress; lang-ko:Byung-soon Kim$2020-14 Seoul

  4. To process the request, enter ctrl+d twice.

    This is the UNIX EOF escape sequence.
