LDAPMODRDN(1) General Commands Manual LDAPMODRDN(1)
ldapmodrdn - LDAP rename entry tool
ldapmodrdn [-V[V]] [-d debuglevel] [-n] [-v] [-r] [-s newsup]
[-c] [-f file] [-M[M]] [-x] [-D binddn] [-W] [-w passwd]
[-y passwdfile] [-H ldapuri] [-P {2|3}] [-e [!]ext[=extparam]]
[-E [!]ext[=extparam]] [-o opt[=optparam]] [-O security-
properties] [-I] [-Q] [-N] [-U authcid] [-R realm] [-X authzid]
[-Y mech] [-Z[Z]] [dn rdn]
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.
-V[V] Print version info. If -VV is given, only the version
information is printed.
-d debuglevel
Set the LDAP debugging level to debuglevel. ldapmodrdn
must be compiled with LDAP_DEBUG defined for this option
to have any effect.
-n Show what would be done, but don't actually change
entries. Useful for debugging in conjunction with -v.
-v Use verbose mode, with many diagnostics written to
standard output.
-r Remove old RDN values from the entry. Default is to keep
old values.
-s newsup
Specify a new superior entry. (I.e., move the target entry
and make it a child of the new superior.) This option is
not supported in LDAPv2.
-c Continuous operation mode. Errors are reported, but
ldapmodrdn will continue with modifications. The
default is to exit after reporting an error.
-f file
Read the entry modification information from file instead
of from standard input or the command-line.
-M[M] Enable manage DSA IT control. -MM makes control critical.
-x Use simple authentication instead of SASL.
-D binddn
Use the Distinguished Name binddn to bind to the LDAP
directory. For SASL binds, the server is expected to
ignore this value.
-W Prompt for simple authentication. This is used instead of
specifying the password on the command line.
-w passwd
Use passwd as the password for simple authentication.
-y passwdfile
Use complete contents of passwdfile as the password for
simple authentication.
-H ldapuri
Specify URI(s) referring to the ldap server(s); only the
protocol/host/port fields are allowed; a list of URI,
separated by whitespace or commas is expected.
-P {2|3}
Specify the LDAP protocol version to use.
-e [!]ext[=extparam]
-E [!]ext[=extparam]
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[=<username>]
abandon,cancel,ignore (SIGINT sends abandon/cancel,
or ignores response; if critical, doesn't wait for SIGINT.
not really controls)
Modrdn extensions:
(none)
-o opt[=optparam]
Specify any ldap.conf(5) option or one of the following:
nettimeout=<timeout> (in seconds, or "none" or "max")
ldif_wrap=<width> (in columns, or "no" for no wrapping)
-O security-properties
Specify SASL security properties.
-I Enable SASL Interactive mode. Always prompt. Default is
to prompt only as needed.
-Q Enable SASL Quiet mode. Never prompt.
-N Do not use reverse DNS to canonicalize SASL host name.
-U authcid
Specify the authentication ID for SASL bind. The form of
the ID depends on the actual SASL mechanism used.
-R realm
Specify the realm of authentication ID for SASL bind. The
form of the realm depends on the actual SASL mechanism
used.
-X authzid
Specify the requested authorization ID for SASL bind.
authzid must be one of the following formats:
dn:<distinguished name> or u:<username>
-Y mech
Specify the SASL mechanism to be used for authentication.
If it's not specified, the program will choose the best
mechanism the server knows.
-Z[Z] Issue StartTLS (Transport Layer Security) extended
operation. If you use -ZZ, the command will require the
operation to be successful.
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.
