System Administration Guide: Naming and Directory Services (DNS, NIS, and LDAP)

ProcedureHow to Convert All NIS+ Data to LDAP in One Operation

  1. Use the rpc.nisd to upload any NIS+ data that does not yet exist in LDAP.

    Assuming all NIS+/LDAP data mappings have been established in the default location (/var/nis/NIS+LDAPmapping), use the following command.


    # /usr/sbin/rpc.nisd -D \ 
 -x nisplusLDAPinitialUpdateAction=to_ldap \
 -x nisplusLDAPinitialUpdateOnly=yes

    The above would make the rpc.nisd upload data to LDAP, and then exit. The NIS+ data would be unaffected by this operation.

    See the nisplusLDAPinitialUpdateAction attribute on rpc.nisd(4).
