./ldapuglist -t passwd -n jsmart sn
Below is the new user entry:
dn: cn=John Smart,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
cn: John Smart uid: jsmart uidNumber: 2350 gidNumber: 200 homeDirectory:
/home/jsmart loginShell: /usr/bin/ksh sn: Smart
The following command adds an account entry for the user, tsheu, with the user's primary
login group id, 350, and gecos field information. In this example, the gecos attribute has been
mapped to cn, l and telephone in the LDAP-UX configuration profile. ldapugadd creates
the password for new user, tsheu, using the password specified in the LDAP_UGCRED
environment variable. After creating the user entry, ldapugadd attempts to add this user as a
member of the group number 350.
./ldapugadd -t passwd -PW -g 350 -I "Tom Sheu,Building-1A,555-555-5555"
tsheu surname="Sheu"
Use the following command to display the new user entry, tsheu, with mapped attribute
information:
./ldapuglist -t passwd -m -n tsheu
Below is the user entry:
dn: cn=Tom Sheu,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com
cn[cn]: Tom Sheu uid[uid]: tsheu uidNumber[uidnumber]: 2200 gidNumber[gidnumber]:
350 homeDirectory[homeDirectory]: /home/tsheu loginShell[loginshell]:
