Appendix A. Using the ns-slapd Command-Line Utilities

Chapter 7, Command-Line Scripts discussed the scripts for performing routine administration tasks on the Red Hat Directory Server (Directory Server). This appendix discusses the ns-slapd command-line utilities that can be used to perform the same tasks.

The ns-slapd command-line utilities all perform server administration tasks, and, while it can be argued that they allow a greater degree of flexibility for users, Red Hat recommends using the command-line scripts described in Chapter 7, Command-Line Scripts
