Thanks that helped. The main reason for my LDAP deployment is for Centralized Linux User management for all Linux Servers. What would be the simplest way to do basic user/group management such as
1. Adding/Removing users to/from Groups. 2. Creating new groups and adding the users to it. 3. Moving users across the groups. >From the documentation it appears that the static group is what I should be looking at, not sure though. Basically I already have many users whose accounts need to be migrated to directory server (as of now Manually managed by puppet). I was wondering if I could do that in some ldif commands. I am really poor with ldif statements. I was trying to do it with Managed group but I could not do it. How a ldif command would look like if I want to add a user say testuser, and also add it to 3 different usergroups (testuser (created by Managed Plugin), testsupport, testadmin, testsales).
