Hello
I'm in trouble with slapcat when generating a LDIF file
it puts some extra "space" characters into some dn longer than 80
characters.
is there a way to change the output format of slapcat command
to generate lines longer than 80 characters in the LDIF file ?
I need this because I need to duplicate our directory server
to another TLD and I need to substitute
dc=fr by dc=biz
but sometime I get this
------------------------------------------------dc=fr
sometime I get this
------------------------------------------------dc=
fr
This is intended behaviour, because the LDIF specifications (RFC2849)
require a max. line length of 76 characters,
Nope :
...
10) When an attrval-spec, distinguishedName, or rdn is base64-
encoded, the encoding rules specified in [5] are used with the
following exceptions: a) ***The requirement that base64 output
streams must be represented as lines of no more than 76
characters is removed.***
