LDAP User Search Base

[mland1964]

Need help configuring LDAP from Novell I can not find much reference to the command strings to use.

I have 1000+ users in the Novell tree and would like to import them into the CCM database and be able to keep the passwords updated between the two.

Thanks

You can use the ICE utility for command line execution of LDAP scripts, exports, imports LDIF's etc. ICE is in the ConsoleOne folder on a server sys: volume.

I dont think you can export passwords though. If pwds come out they'll ptobably be hashed up in their MD5 hashes. I only ever did this once and that was between two NDS trees.

For password sync you'll need something else like Novells Identity Manager or else don't sync but direct all auths into the LDAP repository.

In the LDAP Directory and Authentication page for AD, I know it's something like this:

cn=Users,dc=domainname,dc=com

Not sure what you would use for Novell.

HTH.

For Novell the format is often:

o=organisation,ou=container_level1,ou=container_level2,ou=user_object_container
