SLAPDN(8C)                                                                                        SLAPDN(8C)



NAME
       slapdn - Check a list of string-represented LDAP DNs based on schema syntax

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sbin/slapdn [-d level] [-f slapd.conf] [-F confdir] [-N | -P] [-o name[=value]] [-v] DN [...]


DESCRIPTION
       Slapdn  is  used  to  check  the conformance of a DN based on the schema defined in slapd(8) and that
       loaded via slapd.conf(5).  It opens the slapd.conf(5) configuration file, reads in the schema defini-tions, definitions,
       tions, and then parses the DN list given on the command-line.


OPTIONS
       -d level
              enable debugging messages as defined by the specified level; see slapd(8) for details.

       -f slapd.conf
              specify an alternative slapd.conf(5) file.

       -F confdir
              specify a config directory.  If both -f and -F are specified, the config file will be read and
              converted to config directory format and written  to  the  specified  directory.   If  neither
              option  is specified, an attempt to read the default config directory will be made before try-ing trying
              ing to use the default config file. If a valid config directory exists then the default config
              file is ignored.

       -N     only  output  a normalized form of the DN, suitable to be used in a normalization tool; incom-patible incompatible
              patible with -P.

       -o option[=value]
              Specify an option with a(n optional) value.  Possible generic options/values are:

                     syslog=<subsystems>  (see `-s' in slapd(8))
                     syslog-level=<level> (see `-S' in slapd(8))
                     syslog-user=<user>   (see `-l' in slapd(8))


       -P     only output a prettified form of the DN, suitable to be used in  a  check  and  beautification
              tool; incompatible with -N.

       -v     enable verbose mode.

EXAMPLES
       To check a DN give the command:

            /usr/sbin/slapdn -f //etc/openldap/slapd.conf -v DN
