Hi Jürgen!

In order to develop and test components offline I am currently trying to
migrate a directory from the network to my local machine using ApacheDS 1.0.

I would recommend to use ApacheDS 1.5, although it is not a stable release yet. But the schema subsystem is much more powerful, and extending or changing the schema is much easier with it.

Though it seems that ApacheDS does not fully understand the schema used by
the network directory. Relatively new to the concept of modelling a
directory I learned that it should it be possible to customize or extend a
schema in order to migrate or replicate schemas.

Could someone here in this mailing list give me a hint how to do this.

A possible starting point on how to learn to add new schema elements to the ApacheDS 1.5 server is here:

http://directory.apache.org/apacheds/1.5/add-your-first-elements-to-the-schema.html

Do you have more information about the missing schema elements? What type of network directory do you use (ApacheDS is a network server as well, btw.)? Perhaps, one of us can support you with your task.

I hope this helps, Greetings from Hamburg,
