The following example fetches the user with sampleID=scase under the
ou=east,o=sample base DN.
-
Run ldapsearch to view a Sample entry.
root@proxy-east-01: bin/ldapsearch --bindDN "cn=directory manager" \ --bindPassword password --baseDN "ou=east,o=sample" "(sampleID=scase)"
dn: sampleID=scase,ou=People,ou=east,o=sample objectClass: person objectClass: organizationalPerson objectClass: inetOrgPerson objectClass: exampleAccount objectClass: top description: A customer account migrated from Sample merger sampleID: scase userPassword: {SSHA}A5O4RrQHWXc2Ii3btD4exGdP0TVW9VL3CR3ZXA== exAccountNumber: 234098 givenName: Sterling cn: Sterling Case sn: Case telephoneNumber: +1 804 094 3356 street: 00468 Second Street mail: sterlingcase@maildomain.com l: Arlington st: VA sampleRegion: east sampleLinkedAccounts: sampleID=jcase,ou=People,ou=east,o=sample -
Modify the sampleRegion value, changing it to west. To do this, we first create
a ldapmodify input file, called
scase-mod.ldif, with the following contents:
dn: sampleID=scase,ou=People,ou=east,o=sample changetype: modify replace: sampleRegion sampleRegion: west
-
Use the file as an argument in the ldapmodify command as
follows.
root@proxy-east-01: bin/ldapmodify --bindDN "cn=Directory Manager" \ --bindPassword password --filename scase-mod.ldif
Processing MODIFY request for sampleID=scase,ou=People, ou=east,o=sample MODIFY operation successful for DN sampleID=scase,ou=People, ou=east,o=sample
-
Search for scase's
sampleRegionvalue under o=sample, we should see west:root@proxy-east-01: bin/ldapsearch --bindDN "cn=directory manager" \ --bindPassword password --baseDN "o=sample" "(sampleID=scase)" \ sampleRegion
dn: sampleID=scase,ou=People,ou=east,o=sample sampleRegion: west
-
Search for scase by
uidrather thansampleID, under the dc=example,dc=com base DN. We see the Example.com schema version of the entry:root@proxy-east-01: bin/ldapsearch --bindDN "cn=directory manager" \ --bindPassword password --baseDN "dc=example,dc=com" "(uid=scase)"
