In our organization, each person belongs to two organizational units at the same time. So if we change RDN for any person, we have to modify the RDNs in both branches. But modrdn does not work fine as a changetype in ldif in our case. Specifically say, I have the following lines for one person (aaa) in the ldif: =================== dn: uid=aaa, ou=dept-1, dc=my,dc=edu changetype: modrdn newrdn: uid=bbb deleteolduid: 1 dn: uid=aaa, ou=dept-2, dc=my,dc=edu changetype: modrdn newrdn: uid=bbb deleteoldrdn: 1 ==================== 'ldapmodify' outputs 'constraint violation' when it's executed agaist the above ldif. Seems to me that modrdn does not like it because the new RDNs are same. But they are under the different branches. Do I have to split the ldif into two to work around it? Any ideas?
