There are these days in life of an admin, when there is no way around touching the ldap setup. There is this stupid database suffix I gave my very first ldap setup.
As today is a public holiday, and there’s also a respectable rest of sparkling wine in the fridge, I took the chance to transform this suffix to one, fitting in the rest of my infrastructure.
As I haven’t found an adequate tool for changing the suffix in an ldif file, I post my script here. Hopefully there is someone out, I can help with it.
All you need to do, is to change the $to varibale in the top of the script. Than a
slapcat | changesuffix > my.ldif
should do the job.
Fantastic post!!! Cheers!
