Hi Jeff,
The intended command to upload LDIF entries to your Blackberry is the
upldif command.
To guard the safety of your data on the Blackberry, by default it does
not actually do the upload, just parses the data and displays what it
thinks it should do.
When it looks good, use the -u switch to actually do the upload.
Note that this will _erase_ your entire Address Book database.
If this is not what you want, you may need to dump your existing
Address Book entries using btool into LDIF format (-c option) and
then merge that with the rest of your LDIF data and feed it all to
upldif.
For example, if you're very confident of your LDAP data and Barry's
parsing ability, you could do:
ldapsearch -x | upldif -u
This will erase your Address Book and replace it with the LDAP data.
You will probably want to filter things with the ldapsearch command first,
though, so only contact data gets fed into upldif.
