RE: Sample python scripts to modify the schema in the Directory Server

[Chetan K. <cko...@pa...>]

I would be modifying the schema in the Sun One Directory Server (version =
5.2). We do this using the Netscape LDAP client APIs in C. However, we =
are considering using python for some portions of the application and =
need to modify the schema from python.

Thanks....

regards,
Chetan

Modifying schema over LDAP is very server dependent.  What LDAP servers=20
would you be using?

Then you can use LDAP modify operations with add, using attribute types 
"attributeTypes" and "objectClasses" and the RFC 2252 syntax for the 
values.  For reference, see the schema files supplied with the server, 
or just do an ldapsearch of cn=schema.
