look at the SAMPLE_RECORDS.txt file that is part of the package to see an example grup record. you can also use the LDAPUserFolder to create a new group and add users to it, then examine the group and its structure. i cannot help you on migrating your existing groups, though. i know that the structure as provided by those PADL tools must be retained if you want to use LDAP authentication for your computers, like with the NSS-LDAP package. maybe those tools allow you to specify the creation of other groups? if your number of groups is small you could even take the groups information created by the PADL tools and massage it by hand to get the desired result. jens On Monday, June 24, 2002, at 12:04 , Jerome Alet wrote:

the group you chose (posixGroup) does not conform to the expected group structure as far as the member attribute (memberUid in this case) is concerned.
supported groups are only those where the member attribute contains the _full distinguished name_, such as...
- groupOfUniqueNames -> uniqueMember - groupOfName -> member - group -> member
If ever I had chosen that ! I've used the padl MigrationTools4.0 to migrate my current /etc/passwd and /etc/group and that's about all I know...
OT : What could I do to change this ?
Thanks in advance
