APACHEDS 2.0 - LDIF command line import on windows maschine

I'm looking for a way to import a ldif file into a apacheDS 2.0 LDAP server. I've seen there was a way with 1.5 and the apacheds-tools.jar but this seems to be removed.

Is there another easy way to get the task done?

You can use Apache Directory Studio for this.

Just start it, connect to your directory, right-click on "Root DSE" or any other element of the directory and choose "Import" -> "LDFI import".

It is also described here: https://directory.apache.org/apacheds/basic-ug/2.1.1-adding-entries.html

To get the required tools for windows, your can install OpenLDAP (you can get it here: http://www.userbooster.de/en/download/openldap-for-windows.aspx), the client tools contain a ldapmodify.exe (in \OpenLDAP\ClientTools\).

To use the command line tools on linux you need to install the package ldap-utils (apt-get install ldap-utils).

Then you can do the following:

ldapmodify -h hostname -p 10389 -D "uid=admin,ou=system" -w adminpassword -a -f your-file.ldif

Replace:

hostname with hostname

10389 with the port on which your directory server is running

"uid=admin,ou=system" with the DN of the (probably admin) user you want to use for connecting

10389 with the password of the user

your-file.ldif with the path of your ldif file

For more information, you can have a look at this: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DIRxSRVx10/2.2.2.+Command+line+tools
