ldap-schema-manager - manage schema to be inserted into in openldap server in cn=config mode

ldap-schema-manager [-y] [-n] [-c] [-o options] [path] [-h|-l|-i schema1 schema2|-m schema1 schema2|-e schema1 schema2]

This program will list, insert, empty or modify the ldap schemas into an openldap server in cn=config mode. If a schema is not listed as a path, it will be searched for in the provided path, or in /etc/ldap/schema/ if no path has been provided. To insert schemas from working directory prepend them with "./". Schema with no extension is assumed to be .ldif. Specify .schema if you want the tool to autoconvert the schema to ldif file. See the examples for more information

This option allows you to set the binary name to use in usage output, only useful if you wish to create a tool based upon ldap-schema-manager.
This option defines the default path, which is otherwise /etc/ldap/schema/
This option specifies the default list of schemas to use in case no schema list is given. Only useful if you create a tool based upon this one. The list needs to end with "--end".
