where
infile
is a binary profile file, /etc/opt/ldapux/ldapux_profile.bin
by default, and
outfile
is the output file, stdout by default.
NOTE The binary profile contains mappings for all backend commands (even
unused ones) all of which are displayed by display_profile_cache. The
actual client configuration can be reviewed in the configuration profile
LDIF file: /etc/opt/ldapux/ldapux_profile.ldif.
Examples
The following command displays the profile in the binary profile file
/etc/opt/ldapux/ldapux_profile.bin to stdout:
display_profile_cache
The following command displays the profile in the binary profile file
my_profile.bin and writes the output to the file profile:
display_profile_cache -i my_profile.bin -o profile
The get_profile_entry Tool
This tool, found in /opt/ldapux/config, downloads a profile from an LDAP
directory into an LDIF file and calls create_profile_cache to create a
binary profile file, thereby activating it on the client. This tool looks in
the local client configuration file /etc/opt/ldapux/ldapux_client.conf for
the profile DN.
Syntax
get_profile_entry -s
service
[-o
outfile
]
where
service
is the name of a supported service, typically NSS, and
outfile
is the name of a file to contain the LDIF output, by default
/etc/opt/ldapux_profile.ldif.
Examples
The following command downloads the profile for the Name Service
Switch (NSS) specified in the client configuration file
/etc/opt/ldapux/ldapux_client.conf and places the LDIF in the file
/etc/opt/ldapux/ldapux_profile.ldif:
