Avoid DN in ldapsearch Results

Is there any way to avoid getting full dn: in ldapsearch results? I have a script to retrieve various objects but I want to avoid the dn: from the search results. I couldn't find a option with ldapsearch to avoid dn: in search results.
If there is no option with ldapsearch, any other ideas ?

If you can use -T to avoid wrapping long lines, you can use grep to remove the dns, like
ldapsearch <> <> ... <> | grep -v "^dn: "

    Hi Micha
    Just add “&OT=35 “ at the end of the action in your search form:
    Ex:
    <form name=”xxxx” method=”post” action=”/Default.aspx?SiteSearchID=3566&amp;ID=/results&OT=35”>
    <div class=”search-box”><input type=”text” class= ............../>
    <input type=”submit” class=”cat_button” value=”search” />

    FAQs = 9
    Forums = 43
    Blogs = 55
    Web Apps = 35

    You can exclude multiple areas from a search, simply list them with commas: &OT=35,1,6

  • How do I get Oracle Text to index files on a file server?

    I am new to Oracle (I'm a MS-SQL DBA looking for a Full-Text Search solution that is better than linking to a MS index server.)
    So - Here's the objective:
    I have Oracle Server(Express) installed on a Windows server.
    I would like for Oracle to build a Full-Text Catalog of the files on a separate file server based on file paths in a table in the database.
    (No desire to store terabytes of images and documents inside the database)
    I can get Oracle text up and running, using the URL_Datastore:
    CREATE TABLE files (id NUMBER PRIMARY KEY, issue_id NUMBER, path VARCHAR(255) UNIQUE, ot_format VARCHAR(6), ot_version VARCHAR(10));
    The Compaq server is a remote windows server on my local workgroup, so the fully qualified path is just "compaq" and the URL is valid:
    INSERT INTO files VALUES (9,9,'file://Compaq/FTQ/00000003.pdf',NULL,NULL);
    INSERT INTO files VALUES (13,13,'file://Compaq/FTQ/01.txt',NULL,NULL);
    CREATE INDEX file_index ON files(path) INDEXTYPE IS ctxsys.context
    PARAMETERS ('datastore ctxsys.URL_DATASTORE format column ot_format');
    but when I enter:
    Select * from CTX_User_Index_errors, I see the following errors:
    DRG-11609: URL store: unable to open local file specified by file://Compaq/FTQ/00000003.pdf
    DRG-11609: URL store: unable to open local file specified by file://Compaq/FTQ/01.txt
    Did I miss something?
    Do I need to install anything on the file server?
    I would like to convince my company that Oracle can be much quicker than Microsoft's Indexing Service because it can avoid joining two large result sets (one result set from Full_text (indexing service) and one for specific data contained in fields in the MS-SQL database.) Full Text Searches commonly take 40 - 60 seconds where there are 1.5 million multi-page PDF files for a particular set that I sample search on. Without this massive join, I believe I can get the search to run in under 10 seconds.

    Thank you!
    File_Datastore worked fine.
    I was staying away from File_Datastore because the information I gathered from googling suggested that file_datastore would only work locally.
    Now I just have to get Oracle to pull data out of tables in a MS-SQL database on the local network (don't have a clue yet), and then have it index compiled file paths.
    Then MS-SQL can query Oracle with index and full-text criteria and Oracle can send back a result set
    It may sound like a bad way of performing Full-Text Queries, but anything will be better than the way things are currently running. We are currently performing Full Text Searches on a table that is rebuilt nightly, so the table containing millions of file paths is not live..
    It would be so much better if we just migrated to Oracle, but we currently do not have the resources.

  • SL upgrade installation failed and now macbook won't boot

    Hi all,
    I did some searching in the forums, but I couldn't find this answer -- I'm sorry if it has already been asked/answered.
    I have a 2.5 yr old intel macbook that was running leopard, and I bought the SL upgrade.
    My mac has been hovering around 0-10 gigs of free space for the past 6 months or more. It tends to stay very full since I have a lot of photos and music. When my HD reaches it capacity, I usually connect up to my timemachine (500gb) and dump off 10-30 gigs of pictures, then repeat the process.
    So, I had around 4 GB free when I tried to install SL, it said it wasn't enough so I deleted some movies/downloaded content quickly, restarted, then tried again and with 7-10gb free (I don't remember exactly) it let me begin the install and choose my Mac HD to install it to.
    I came back and it said there was an error and it needed to restart and try again.
    After restarting, the mac can no longer find the boot disk, and I put the CD back in and did disk diagnostic. The diag said it needed to try to repair. I tried to repair and it said, this in unrepairable. You need to try to save off as much data as you can, clean/clear the disk and reinstall the operating system.
    If I try to restart the system and let it load normally, it stays on the grey Apple loading screen with the spinning circle. After 30-60 seconds it just turns off because it is failing to mount or boot the disk (I'm assuming).
    Does this seem strange? My computer is basically saying the disk is done and you need to reformat, but I don't feel like it's really corrupted. When running the diag test, the app unmounts the disk to test and then can never re-mount until I restart, so that's also weird.
    I have not backed up my computer in 40-60 days so I would really be taking a step back if I just wiped it right now then tried to get some data back from my time machine.
    Is there a way that I get access the disk somehow to move data to my time machine, or USB, or something, before I wipe it out? Also, can the SL disk wipe and reinstall the OS or do I need the OSX Tiger/leopard installation disks?
    Thank you very much for any advice, sorry again if this is a repeat question.

    This is VERY bad. you should keep at least 10% (better 15%) of drive space free at all times to avoid potentially serious problems resulting from disk fragmentation. they can lead to ALL kinds of issues including catastrophic directory damage which you likely got.
    It tends to stay very full since I have a lot of photos and music. When my HD reaches it capacity, I usually connect up to my timemachine (500gb) and dump off 10-30 gigs of pictures, then repeat the process.
    this is a VERY bad idea too. Time Machine is a backup tool, not an archiving one. using it as an archiving tool as you did can and will lead to data loss. TM constantly thins its backups. it keeps hourly backups for 24 hours, daily backups for 30 days and weekly backups till the TM drive is full. the backups are thinned without warning. and when the drive gets full it starts deleting old backups to make room for new ones. it's supposed to warn you about it once if you have that option checked in system preferences. but this warning is only given once and sometimes not at all.
    So, I had around 4 GB free when I tried to install SL, it said it wasn't enough so I deleted some movies/downloaded content quickly, restarted, then tried again and with 7-10gb free (I don't remember exactly) it let me begin the install and choose my Mac HD to install it to.

    no, it doesn't.
    My computer is basically saying the disk is done and you need to reformat, but I don't feel like it's really corrupted.
    oh yes, it is. the only wonder is that this didn't happen sooner given that you were keeping the drive as full as you did.
    When running the diag test, the app unmounts the disk to test and then can never re-mount until I restart, so that's also weird.
    I have not backed up my computer in 40-60 days so I would really be taking a step back if I just wiped it right now then tried to get some data back from my time machine.

    you don't need leopard or tiger disks. you can do a full system restore from TM using the snow leopard disk. you can try to get some data off the drive first. do you have access to another mac? does your macbook has a firewire port? if yes you can boot it in target mode, connect it to another drive by a firewire cable and copy what you need to a different drive from there. otherwise you'd have to either do it from terminal while booted from the SL DVD or install SL on an external drive , boot from that and do it from there. also, you can try using Disk Warrior or a similar tool on your main drive. It may work where Disk Utility failed.
    Thank you very much for any advice, sorry again if this is a repeat question.

  • Relationship deletion of BP in CRM

    Hi Friends,
    My Requirement is to delete a relationship Contact person of a BP.
    when i delete it system shows an Error message that " Contact person still been used, can not be deleted".
    can anyone tell how to delimit the validity period of a relationship.
    Good and correct answer will be rewarded..
    Plz help as this is a high priority Issue...
    Thanks in Advance
    Regards
    Charan

    Hi,
    Address of Contact Person, assigned to Business Partner, is always relationship-specific. This is how system was designed, and this is how this data is stored and trasnferred.
    But the reason of the error during deletion is not the relationship,
    but some sales transaction which was created with this Contact Person.
    The note 830239 describes what has to be done to switch off
    the check and how it is handled in the future then to avoid problems. The result is that you will still see the address data in the sales document etc. However, please check the header part of the note for steps you haveto carry out manually. eg the first 2 steps need to be carried out.
    Hope this will solve the issue .
    Thanks,
    Karuna.

  • Query to support Alert

    Through this forum I learned of a query to support an alert for a new sales order.
    SELECT T0.DocNum, T0.CardCode, T0.CardName,T0.NumAtCard, T0.DocDate, T0.DocStatus, T0.Printed FROM ORDR T0 INNER JOIN RDR1 T1 ON T0.DocEntry = T1.DocEntry WHERE DATEDIFF(DD,T0.CREATEDATE,GETDATE())=0
    Instead of running this once a day we need to have the alert send as soon as the orders are made.  Any suggestions to avoid having the same results get sent everytime the alert runs?  We want to send the alert only once.

  • ADF Faces 10g: How to empty an af:table component?

    Hi,
    I am using JDeveloper/ADF 10.1.3.
    I have a page with 2 iterators on the same view (one always in search mode), a search form and a table for results. As there are a lot of rows in the view and I don't want to query it without search criteria to avoid getting all the results, I set the iterator's refresh property to ${adfFacesContext.postback==true}.
    I made a Search button binding the Execute action and a Reset button binding the Find action. Now, when I hit the Reset button, I also want to reset the table (the query results) to empty. How to do that? I could not find any method to empty the rowset, neither at table lavel, nor at iterator, nor at view.
    Thanks in advance for your replies.

    Hi,
    I don't have a declarative solution for you, but some possible solutions or ideas to do it.
    1. put a method in the application module end expose the method to the client (data control). This method can either remove all rows from the VO (call removeCurrentRowFromCollection() for each row currently in the VO but keep them in the DB).
    2. you can try to use executeEmptyRowSet() (I'm not sure it's available in 10.1.3) and hope that it removes all rows from the row set (the method is not documented, so I'm olny guessing it's function).
    3. execute your search with parameters you are sure they will not return any result. This can be done from a backing bean.

  • Problem with varargs

    The variable-length parameter must be the last parameter declared by the method......................
    Can anyone explain me please, why it will be the last parameter????

    Here is an example:
    void myMethod(String... someStrings, String... evenMoreStrings) {} // not valid java code!!!If the code above would be allowed, what would be the values of parameters someStrings and evenMoreStrings, when I call the method like this?
    myMethod("this", "is", "ambigous");Get the problem now?
    There might be cases where more than ... might work, but in order to avoid all the confusion resulting from multiple varargs, Java adopted best practices and allowed only one per method.

    also tell how compile and run the code of abap..
    for that need any software to run..
    thanks in advance

    Hi Bharnikumar,
    ABAP is one of the ERP.
    ERP-  ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) is a tool to integrate the process of an enterprise to better utilize the resources for planning.
    Like in a company you automate the processes through ERP so that redundancy can be avoided to yeild better results.
    ABAP - Advance business application programming in data processing.
    It is a Fourth generation language. Currently using versions are SAP R/3 4.7 EE ( Entripise Edition )
    SAP R/3 5.0 ECC (Erp Central Componet)
    SAP R.3 6.0 ECC.
    R/3 here defines the 3-tier architecture. I.e mainly presentation sever, application sever and data base server.
    SAP is database independet  so u can use any database such as oracle, sql ..
    it is also platfrom independent. u can install SAP software in any operating system .
    So u can go for ABAP in 21 days is gud book for initial learing.

  • PP CS5 Effects

    Some effects seem to be gone in CS5, like radial blur.
    Where can I see a comparison of all old and new effects?
    Are there any new effects for Premiere CS5?
    I am very underwhelmed by CS5 and the whole 64 bit Mercury revolution.
    Seems high performance is guaranteed by removing plugins that require machine power.
    Matrox dropped all of it's great effects, so I now have to create them with Adobe plugins; think shine and glow.
    But it seems even Adobe scrapped many plugins.
    No wonder realtime speed can be guaranteed.
    Is there a way to get an offline help file without the off-topic online contamination?

    Thanks for the answers.
    I somewhat start to like Premiere CS5; it has rendering quircks but I can work around them with consistent results.
    Took me a while to avoid low quality render results, but I found a solution; turn on Maximum Render Quality in the Sequence menu. Leave Optimize Rendering For Performance on in the Preferences until you get memory problems; just switch to Memory then. Drastic improvement of quality. Also make sure Premiere uses Matrox uncompressed rendering in stead of the usual i-MPEG crap; Matrox uses the Premiere Preview rendering architecture to render it's master results.
    Ten layers with a most evil mix of effects, keep on playing realtime without one crash. You just need to do a "render all" to get 100% quality, especially for field blending in slomos and 3D DVE edges; they will improve greatly. The yellow line will become green. Playback should be perfect then, but I always get one dropped frame hickup when playing the first time. Second time it's OK.
    Only quirck was a title on slomo video; it rammed things down by two pixels. later on this error could not be reproduced. But beware.
    Oh yeah, field reversing and so on, cancels slomos; they go back to 100%.
    Matrox effects may need to be stacked higher or lower in the effects hierachy when render errors and/or artifacts occur. They do disappear then.
    Stand alone slomo videos must be covered by a transparent video layer, to force rendering by "render work area" which greatly enhances field blending.
    Just hitting return does not force-render everything anymore.
    Renders are re-used in nested timelines; saves time.
    Photoshop layer modes in Premiere prevent the need for After Effects 1/3 of the time.
    Since I can't find a shine or even the good old radial blur anymore, I ordered BCC to compensate for the lost effects.
    Heavy CS4 Premiere or CS4 After Effects projects should be considered lost. Even though downwards compatibilty is claimed, it is not working with somewhat complex productions. The CS5 apps just don't digest them.
    Matrox and CS4 was luxury with a slow engine; Matrox and CS5 is spartan setup with a fast engine.

  • Down Convert Questions

    Hey gang,
    So, I'v noticed quite a few complaints people have been having with compressing HD footage for SD DVD using the latest version of Compressor. Unfortunately, I have recently discovered similar issues and was just hoping to get some input on the best way to work around the poor quality exports from Compressor.
    Currently, I'm working on a 20 minute short film that was shot on a Panasonic HVX200 in 1080i. I much prefer using 720p when shooting on the HVX, but I wasn't the DP in this scenario. Just to clarify, the footage is 1920x1080 and 23.98 fps. We edited in FCP, color corrected (and de-interlaced) in color, and have been attempting to export to DVD.
    The compressions we've done so far look pretty terrible. Not noticing too much aliasing, but there's some sort of awful looking moire/artifacting going on in the very deep blacks. This is a black and white film, so that really becomes distracting. In doing my research here, it looks this is just an unavoidable result of using the new Compressor, so I'm trying to narrow down my options.
    It seems that the first solution is to try adjusting the frame controls to achieve better quality while resizing, although I see that while this drastically increases compression time, the improvement may be marginal at best. I'm wondering if it would possibly be better for me to nest the sequence in FCP and resize it there before I compress it for DVD? Is that the dumbest idea ever?
    The other possible solution I had would be to export a full-res QT of the film (I don't even want to think about how long that will take), and then compress that with an older version of Compressor that I have access to. I would like to just export a reference QT ( i.e. a version that is not self-contained) of the film, but I wasn't sure if an older version of Compressor (the version that came with FCS2) would be able to work with a reference QT exported from the newer version of FCP. Do reference QTs follow the same backwards compatibility restrictions as FC files? This is a process that I would like to avoid, but if the results are much better it might be worth it.
    I know you guys are probably sick of dealing with this question over and over, but any input you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance!

    Why De-interlace a progressive sequence?

    Not if your opening then with some other program. The backward compatibility issue is form Final Cut (newer) to Final Cut (older).
