What do people use for bulk updates?  Examples would be changing the
"gidNumber" for a bunch of users, or shifting users from one OU/suffix

My ldap server is OpenLDAP, I use slapcat, followed by a custom perl script that uses Net::LDAP's ldif abilities to read and write ldif files making any changes I need to, followed by an ldap_diff and then an ldapmodify.

(my ldap_diff is a locally written program, but there are ones available via google that are written in perl, they just never did what I needed, so I wrote my own for my custom needs using the OpenLDAP libldap)
