Ldapmodrdn opens a connection to an LDAP server, binds and modifies the rdn of entries. The entry information is read from standard input, from a file (with -f option) or from the command-line pair dn rdn

 

ldapmodrdn

[-r] [-n] [-v] [-k] [-K] [-c] [-M[M]] [-d debuglevel] [-D binddn] [-W] [-w passwd] [-y passwdfile] [-H ldapuri] [-h ldaphost] [-p ldapport] [-P 2|3] [-O security-properties] [-I] [-Q] [-U authcid] [-R realm] [-x] [-X authzid] [-Y mech] [-Z[Z]] [-f file] [dn rdn]

 

-r	Remove old RDN values from the entry. Default is to keep old values.
-c	Continuous operation mode. If an error is found it is reported, but ldapmodrdn will continue reading pairs dn-rdn. The default is to exit after reporting an error.
-h ldaphost	Specifies an alternate host on which the LDAP server is running
-p ldapport	Specifies the TCP port where the LDAP server is listening
-D binddn	Binddn is the distinguished name used to bind to the LDAP server
-w passwd	Use passwd as the password for simple authentication
-f file	Read the pairs dn - rdn from file.
dn rdn	Distinguished name of the entry and new rdn

Example

 

The following command:

 

 

Will modify the entry "id=47,ou=people..." changing the id from 47 to 60 and deleting the old value. The bind to the LDAP server is done as "cn=James Bond..." and the server is installed in host 10.63.3.200 listening on port 1389.
