Hi
Everyone,



Is there an easy way to add an object class value to all the users in
my 389 Directory Server?



Thank you,

I'd say yes. But what "easy" means to you depends on your skills.

You could generate a LDIF file containing change records for all your entries.
Or even better use your favourite scripting language to do the modifications
with the help of a decent LDAP module.

Ciao, Michael.

Hi Michael,



Yeh I thought I would have to resort to something like that.*
Generating a huge LDIF file containing change records for each user was
what I was hoping to avoid or find some shortcut for...



I guess I'm going to have to look at writing a PHP script now or
something.* Too bad I can't just select all the users in the Java
console and add the class...



Thanks,


- Vince

It's not that hard.

Depending on the schema you might have to add some attributes too...

Ciao, Michael.
