Naming and Directory Services (DNS, NIS, and LDAP)

2. Stop the NIS+ service.# svcadm disable network/rpc/nisplus:default3. Open the /lib/svc/method/nisplus file.Use the editor of your choice.4. Edit the file to add the desired options.Change:if [ -d /var/nis/data -o -d /var/nis/$hostname ]; then/usr/sbin/rpc.nisd || exit $To:if [ -d /var/nis/data -o -d /var/nis/$hostname ]; then/usr/sbin/rpc.nisd -Y -B || exit $?In this example, the -Y and -B options are added to rpc.nisd, so the options areautomatically implemented at startup.5. Save and quit the /lib/svc/method/nisplus file.6. Start the NIS+ service.# svcadm enable network/rpc/nisplus:defaultCreating Attributes and Object ClassesDepending on how you configure the NIS+/LDAP mapping, you might need to createa number of new LDAP attributes and object classes. The examples show how to dothis by specifying LDIF data that can be used as input to the ldapadd command.Create a file containing the LDIF data, and then invoke ldapadd(1).# ldapadd -D bind-DN -f ldif -fileThis method works with Sun Java System Directory Server, and might work withother LDAP servers as well.Note – Except for the defaultSearchBase, preferredServerList, andauthenticationMethod attributes, as well as the SYNTAX specifications, the objectidentifiers (OIDs) used in this chapter are intended for illustration only. As no officialOIDs have been assigned, you are free to use any suitable OIDs.Chapter 16 • Transitioning From NIS+ to LDAP 255
