Re: ldapmodify interactive?

[Edward Khoo <edwardkkb@cheerful.com>]

 Buon pomeriggio,

>Significantly, you are not entering the DN you want to modify,
:-) That was just a quick example. But, you are right in a different 
way....I was using a DN with no rights to read/write any record, that is 
why I was getting errors.

About the LDIF, is there some sort of converter to change the DOS <crlf> 
to a Unix <\n> ? Anyone knows?
I read in the FAQ that the <crlf> won't be accepted by a Unix Directory 
Server.

Grazie. :-)
