Re: LDIF compatibility

[Markus Krogemann <Markus.Krogemann@team-konzept.de>]

i'm afraid they are not. i had the same task and asked this list for 
advice, but there doesn't seem to be a straight-forward way of migrating 
1.x ldifs to 2.1 (please correct me if i'm wrong).

my solution was to write a Java Program that talked to two ldap servers 
(old and new) at the same time and read-in write-out all entries 
sequentially. not the nicest solution and it may not be an alternative 
for you.

Any other ideas would be appreciated.
