NAME

     slapdn - Check a list of  string-represented  DNs  based  on
     schema syntax.

SYNOPSIS

     /usr/sbin/slapdn  [-v]  [-d  level]  [-f   slapd.conf]   [-F
     confdir] [-N | -P] DN [...]

DESCRIPTION

     Slapdn is used to check the conformance of a DN based on the
     schema   defined   in   slapd(8)   and   that   loaded   via
     slapd.conf(5).  It  opens  the  slapd.conf(5)  configuration
     file,  reads  in the schema definitions, and then parses the
     DN list given on the command-line.

OPTIONS

     -v   enable verbose mode.

     -d level
          enable debugging messages as defined by  the  specified
          level.

     -f slapd.conf
          specify an alternative slapd.conf(5) file.

     -F confdir
          specify a config directory.  If  both  -f  and  -F  are
          specified,  the  config file will be read and converted
          to config directory format and written to the specified
          directory.   If neither option is specified, an attempt
          to read the  default  config  directory  will  be  made
          before  trying  to  use  the  default config file. If a
          valid config directory exists then the  default  config
          file is ignored.

     -N   only output a normalized form of the DN, suitable to be
          used in a normalization tool; incompatible with -P.

     -P   only output a prettified form of the DN, suitable to be
          used  in  a check and beautification tool; incompatible
          with -N.

EXAMPLES

     To check a DN give the command:

          /usr/sbin/slapdn -f //etc/openldap/slapd.conf -v DN
