Having just been through this process, I heartily agree. I had to write scripts to go through the output LDIF from DSEE and remove (for example) lines that had attribute names but no values, e.g. telephoneNumber: And there were a couple of attribute types (like telephoneNumber and, I believe, 'manager') where I had to go into the schema files and change the syntax type to something more forgiving (directoryString, I think), since DSEE had cheerfully accepted all kinds of arbitrary values for these attributes. -- -- Michael J.
