i assume the "userPasword" is just a typo or is this in your script

is should be ss

man ! thanks!!

i didn´t saw it because its not my script

i hope i can manage that the group memberships will work as you have to update also the group object

its all in a excel file and will be converted with a macro to ldif file, i can provide it if somebody wants it

somebody has ever modified existing groups?

doesnt work like this

dn: cn=xxx,ou=USER,ou=HQ,ou=DE,o=xxx
changetype: add
equivalentToMe: cn=xxx,ou=USER,ou=HQ,ou=DE,o=xxx
objectClass: groupOfNames
objectClass: Top
member: cn=xxx,ou=USER,ou=HQ,ou=DE,o=xxx

are there any other changetypes?

I've used all the MS command line tools and all take time to learn. If you simply want to import user on mass try

http://www.bulkimport.co.uk

it very cheap ($15 I think) and it works. I seem to recall there is no free trial period so you can't use it once, but I bought it and it worked.

Sorry I came through from a search relating to Active Directory...doh! Did use NetWare 4,5,6 in previous job. Personally I find Windows/Active Directory easier to manage and administer. Hard to say wether it performs better than NDS as hardware (servers and network) have got faster. I have noticed Active Directory seems to have ripped of many of the features of NDS, some worse, some better. Must stop rambling on, wife calling.

You only use changetype: add when the attribute you want to modify does not have a value in it. To modify the value of an attribute, you use the changetype: modify
