Hello gurus,
I'm migrating a Sun DS to Openldap and I've an highly personalized 99user.ldif file with user defined objectclass and attributes (hundreds... :( :( ) Regarding personalized schema definitions, is there a way (script/batch/etc) to convert quickly and easly a Sun DS 99user.ldif file to the standard OpenLDAP schema files ?
Any suggestion is highly appreciated !
Thank you very much!

I feel your pain!
I have a similar problem and I have had to write my own application to load the DS ldif and convert it to something OpenLDAP will accept.
Are your personalised schemas in a standard format? if not then creating a schema file should be your first job.
thank for your reply Ian !
Regarding standard format... yes, I presume... I've the standard 99user.ldif file under Sun DS schema dir and it's containing hundreds of personalized attrs and objclasses as defined through the Admin Console.
congratulations to you for writing the translation routine !

Hi,
Maybe it could help. I try to make something to do that since many months. For the moment, this is a Java tool, the GUI is in french only, but the main functionnalities (which should be usefull) are available in command lines.

Hi,
There is a script that does this the other way round, here: http://blogs.oracle.com/Ludo/entry/opends_tips_adding_schema_from
I expect you could adapt it to reverse the process without too much hassle.
Hope this helps, Jonathan
Thanks Jonathan for the reference.
My blog was actually moved here : http://ludopoitou.wordpress.com And there's an updated version of the script linked from this article : http://ludopoitou.wordpress.com/2009/07/31/updated-schema-convert-py-script-...
