LDAP-UX Client Services B.05.00 Administrator's Guide

interacts with the optional <attr>=<value> parameters. See the
<attr>=<value> option below for details. You can specify the -R option
more than once per command line.
-n <new_name> Specifies the new name of the user or group. This option replaces the uid
attribute for user entries or the cn attribute for group entries with the new
name, or the mapped attribute if attribute mapping has been specified for
that attribute. The <new_name> argument specifies the new name of the
user or group. Using -n is the same as replacing the corresponding attribute.
For example, the following two commands perform the same operation,
replacing the old UID with new UID for a user entry (assuming no attribute
mapping) :
ldapugmod -t passwd -n newuid olduid
Is the same as:
ldapugmod -t passwd olduid "uid=newuid"
7.3.6.3.1 Options applicable to -t passwd
The following is a list of valid options for -t passwd:
<uid_name>
Required. Specifies the POSIX style login name of the user entry
to modify. You must specify the <uid_name> parameter unless
you specify the -D option. This user name must conform to HP-UX
login name requirements. For more information about login name
requirements, see the passwd(4) manpage.
-f <full_name>
Replaces the user’s full name. If is an empty string (a pair of double
quotes: ""), ldapugmod removes the cn (or mapped) attribute.
See the “WARNING” section below for impacts when using this
option.
-u <uidNumber> Replaces the user’s numeric ID number. If uidNumber is an empty
string (a pair of double quotes: ""), ldapugmod removes the
uidNumber or mapped attribute. If the specified uidNumber
value already exists in the directory server, ldapugmod does not
modify the entry and returns an error exit status, unless you
specify the -F option.
-g <group/gid>
Replaces the user's primary login group ID number. If
<group/gid> is an empty string (a pair of double quotes: ""),
ldapugmod will remove the gidNumber or mapped attribute. In
order to support numeric group names, ldapugmod treats the -g
argument as a group name. If ldapugmod cannot find a matched
numeric group name in the directory server, it checks to see if the
value is numeric and then checks to see if the specified group ID
number exists. If it does not exist, ldapugmod exits with an error,
unless you specify the -F option.
