How the Tool Works
For example:
setpin host=laiking port=19000 "binddn=CN=Directory Manager"
bindpw=netscape "filter=(ou=employees)" basedn=o=siroe.com
This command, if run, will query the directory for all the entries that match the
filter criteria, which in this case is all users belonging to an organizational unit ( )
ou
called . For each entry matching the filter, information is printed out to
employees
standard error. Additionally, to the standard output or the file named in output;
see "Output File" on page 36.
You can also provide the tool with an input argument using the option. The
input
argument must be in the form of an ASCII file of pre-prepared DNs and PINs (see
Figure 4-1). Note that the input file isn't a substitute for the LDAP directory entries;
the filter attribute must still be provided. If an input file is provided, the tool
updates only those filtered attributes that match the ones in the input file. For more
information about the input file, see "Input File" on page 35.
