All records in the changelog are immediate children of the
cn=changelog entry and are named with the
changeNumber
attribute. You can view changelog entries using
ldapsearch. Changes are represented in the form documented in the
draft-good-ldap-changelog specification with the targetDN attribute
providing the DN of the updated entry, the changeType
attribute providing
the type of operation (add, delete, modify, or modDN), and the changes attribute providing
a base64-encoded representation of the attributes included in the entry (for add
operations) or the changes made (for modify operations) in LDIF form. You can view the
changes by decoding the encoded value using the base64
decode utility. The LDAP SDK for Java also provides support for parsing
changelog entries.
