Hello

This was what I needed to search entries:

ldapsearch -x -b xx -D xxx -w xxx
"(&(cn=*)(modifytimestamp<=2009092513000000Z)(objectclass=person))"

But then, how to pipe ldapsearch and ldapdelete to delete the result
dn's of ldapsearch?
specify "dn" as the attribute to return - just add it to the end of the command line - also add -LLL to the ldapsearch command line to make it less verbose
you will then have output like
dn: somedn
blank line
repeat.....

You will have to use sed/awk/perl to strip the "dn: " from the DNs, and ignore the blank lines

Hello

Thanks for your answer.

I know about those timestamps, but I don't know if I can compare
timestamps with ldapsearch.

So, is it possible to compare or search entries older that defined
timestamp, for example:

ldapsearch "(objectClass=*)" * modifyTimestamp>20090801000000Z

or how I could do this?

Hi

All entries in the directory have some operational attributes called
createTimestamp, modifiTimestamp, creatorsName and modifiersName. With
them, you can check when an entry has been created or modified, and
who did it. I think this is what you are looking for.

Those attributes, thar are operational, are not returned when you ask
for all attributes, you must specify their names manually:

ldapsearch ...... "(objectClass=*)" * createTimestamp

Hello

I'm using fedora-ds-1.0.4-1.RHEL4 and I have an application that
creates and modifies entries located in FDS.
Application does not remote old entries, and I cannot change how
application works.

I would like to delete entries that are not modified recently with
either plain ldapsearch+ldapdelete or using some FDS tools, perl scipt
etc.

So, my question is, what is the easiest way to delete entries, for
example older that 3 months?

Regards,
Kimmo
