The YaST runlevel editor, described in Section 19.2.3, “Configuring System Services
(Runlevel) with YaST” (page 382), can be used to have the server started and stopped
automatically on boot and halt of the system. It is also possible to create the correspond-
ing links to the start and stop scripts with the
insserv
command from a command
prompt as described in Section 19.2.2, “Init Scripts” (page 378).
36.4 Data Handling in the LDAP
Directory
OpenLDAP offers a series of tools for the administration of data in the LDAP directory.
The four most important tools for adding to, deleting from, searching through, and
modifying the data stock are briefly explained below.
36.4.1 Inserting Data into an LDAP Directory
Once the configuration of your LDAP server in
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf
is
correct and ready to go (it features appropriate entries for
suffix
,
directory
,
rootdn
,
rootpw
, and
index
), proceed to entering records. OpenLDAP offers the
ldapadd
command for this task. If possible, add the objects to the database in bundles
for practical reasons. LDAP is able to process the LDIF format (LDAP data interchange
format) for this. An LDIF file is a simple text file that can contain an arbitrary number
of attribute and value pairs. Refer to the schema files declared in
slapd.conf
for
the available object classes and attributes. The LDIF file for creating a rough framework
for the example in
Figure 36.1, “Structure of an LDAP Directory” (page 664) would
look like that in Example 36.7, “Example for an LDIF File” (page 673).
