Hi,
I need to store Active Directory Data into OpenLDAP and for that I want to create the Active Directory schema into OpenLDAP. How to do it?

Export the schema from AD, and convert it to the format used by OpenLDAP.

That's not feasible for the whole schema for various reasons (see Samba4).
The original poster should explain in detail what he wants to achieve.
Ciao, Michael.

Indeed. If you want a mostly-AD like schema for OpenLDAP, then use Samba4's 'in a box' setup of OpenLDAP, and extract back out the schema we came up with. At least that has been tested, and the various conflicts (there are many!) have been resolved.

Thanx for your replies. Can you provide any example or tutorial link. I am totally new to LDAP world.

Actually, my primary requirement is to create users directory. I already have an AD but I am not allowed to use that directory, so I have to create a new one, which will snyc it self on weekly bases.
For that, what i was thinking is to use OpenLDAP and get all users into it. I do not need anything other thn users information.
Regards
