Problem

You want to add an LDAP record. Effectively create a record.

Solution

To add a record to LDAP, you simply run an ldapmodify with the -a flag.

Example


ldapmodify -x -a -v-D”cn=Manager,dc=demo,dc=net”-w secret < ldifFile


Where ldifFile is a file either hand crafted or generated with ldapsearch -L.
