ldapvi is tool to update LDAP entries with a text editor. It is: # Written in C. # Reasonably fast and small. The ldapvi client needs about as much time for receiving entries as the OpenLDAP server needs to sends them, which should be fast enough. # Shows a summary of changes before committing them. Details of the changes can be previewed in LDIF format. # Uses an LDIF-like format in the editor (which should be easier to use interactively than standard LDIF). # Can rename entries. # Does not give up easily. On error, you can edit the file again or rebind to the server and try again. WWW: http://www.lichteblau.com/ldapvi.html
