ldapmodrdn is a shell-accessible interface to the ldap_rename(3) library call.
ldapmodrdn opens a connection to an LDAP server, binds, and modifies the RDN of entries. The entry information is read from standard input, from file through the use of the -f option, or from the command-line pair dn and rdn.
Specify general extensions with -e and modrdn extensions with -E. ´!´ indicates criticality.
General extensions:
[!]assert=<filter> (an RFC 4515 Filter)
!authzid=<authzid> ("dn:<dn>" or "u:<user>")
[!]bauthzid (RFC 3829 authzid control)
[!]chaining[=<resolve>[/<cont>]]
[!]manageDSAit
[!]noop
ppolicy
[!]postread[=<attrs>] (a comma-separated attribute list)
[!]preread[=<attrs>] (a comma-separated attribute list)
[!]relax
sessiontracking
abandon,cancel,ignore (SIGINT sends abandon/cancel,
or ignores response; if critical, doesn't wait for SIGINT.
not really controls)
Modrdn extensions:
(none)
Specify general options.
General options:
nettimeout=<timeout> (in seconds, or "none" or "max")
ldif-wrap=<width> (in columns, or "no" for no wrapping)
If the command-line arguments dn and rdn are given, rdn will replace the RDN of the entry specified by the DN, dn.
Otherwise, the contents of file (or standard input if no -f flag is given) should consist of one or more entries.
Distinguished Name (DN)
Relative Distinguished Name (RDN)
One or more blank lines may be used to separate each DN/RDN pair.
Assuming that the file /tmp/entrymods exists and has the contents:
cn=Modify Me,dc=example,dc=com
cn=The New Me
the command:
ldapmodrdn -r -f /tmp/entrymods
will change the RDN of the "Modify Me" entry from "Modify Me" to "The New Me" and the old cn, "Modify Me" will be removed.
Exit status is 0 if no errors occur. Errors result in a non-zero exit status and a diagnostic message being written to standard error.
