                  URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSTUDIO-461
              Project: Directory Studio
           Issue Type: New Feature
     Affects Versions: 1.3.0
             Reporter: Paul Dorman
             Priority: Minor


For testing my software application, I have bogus entries in my group
membership lists. It would be useful to select a vertex in the directory tree
and have 'validate entries' or some such to identify invalid entries. This
would help me tune my deliberate directory corruption so I can be confident my
application handles real errors. I use OpenLDAP, which seems to allow a lot of
errors.

This feature would also be helpful for those reorganizing or debugging a
directory. Our directory is particularly poor at the moment and we would
benefit from some good analysis tools.

Your description of "validate" is a bit vague, but since you're talking about bogus members of groups, it sounds like you want referential integrity. Regarding OpenLDAP, you should read the slapo-refint(5) manpage and also read the Admin Guide.
