Table Of Contents
Command Arguments
The following describes the ldapugdel options and arguments used in the above examples:
-t <type> Specifies the type of entry the ldapugdel tool needs to delete. <type> can be
passwd or group. The passwd type represents LDAP user entries which contain
POSIX account-related information. The group type represents LDAP group
entries which contains POSIX group-related information.
-O Allows the ldapugdel tool to delete only the posixAccount or posixGroup object
class and associated attributes, without deleting the entire user or group entry.
-D The ldapugdel tool searches for the named user or group using the search rules
defined by the service search descriptor in LDAP-UX configuration profile. You
can use the -D option to specify the Distinguished Name (DN) of the entry being
deleted. You can specify only one of -D, <uid_name> or <group_name>
parameter on the command line.
Checking LDAP-UX Configuration
The ldapcfinfo tool provides several capabilities used to report LDAP-UX configuration and
status. When used specifically with the LDAP user and group tools, ldapcfinfo can be used
to discover LDAP-UX configuration details about required attributes when adding new users
or groups to an LDAP directory server.
NOTE: The LDAP-UX Client Services provides two default template files to work with Windows
2000, 2003 or 2003 R2 Active Directory Server. If you attempt to use default template files when
using ldapcfinfo to access a Windows ADS, you must manually use the following commands
to re-link the default templates to the default templates for the Windows ADS:
ln -fs /etc/opt/ldapux/ug_templates/ug_passwd_ads.tmpl \
/etc/opt/ldapux/ug_templates/ug_passwd_default.tmpl
ln -fs /etc/opt/ldapux/ug_templates/ug_group_ads.tmpl \
/etc/opt/ldapux/ug_templates/ug_group_default.tmpl
Checking if LDAP-UX is Configured
Use the ldapcfinfo -t <type> command to check to see if the LDAP-UX is properly
configured for a specified service. The valid <type> value can be passwd, group, netgroup,
services, rpc, hosts, networks, automount, publickey, protocols and pam.
The following commands check to see if LDAP-UX is properly configured for the passwd service:
cd /opt/ldapux/bin
./ldapcfinfo -t passwd
Assume that LDAP-UX is properly configured, below is the output of the above command:
INFO: CFI_CONFIG_SUCCESS:
"passwd" service appears properly configured for LDAP-UX operation
The following command checks to see if LDAP-UX is properly configured for the automount
service:
./ldapcfinfo -t automount
Assume that the automount service is not configured for LDAP-UX support, below is the output
of the above command:
