Hi All,
Apologies if this is a stupid question, but I can't find the answer via Google.
I need to make the same modification to every entry in my address book. Can I do this with a single ldapmodify command? If so, what is the syntax for the mod file? I'm assuming something like this:
dn: ?? changetype: modify add: objectClass objectClass: evolutionPerson
One alternative solution is utilize on client ldap browser with this feature. What you want may be encontred in: * "Apache Directory Studio" - http://directory.apache.org/studio/ - need java to work - have version for Windows and Linux; * "Ldap Admin" - http://ldapadmin.sourceforge.net/ - standalone client - only have version for Windows - but works with "wine" in Linux.

... but I can't think what the DN would be, since I don't really understand how wildcards work in DNs, if at all. The entries I want to modify are all in ou=addressbook,dc=mydomain, but all have different cns.
Second, some of the entries already have that object class - will this cause a problem? Will ldapmodify simply ignore those entries, or create a duplicate identical objectClass, or crash?
Many thanks in advance,
CC
