Changing ldap domain

Hi
Due to a domain change I need to change the ldap search base.
cn=olddomain,cn=oldtld to cn=newdomain,cn=newtld
I tried it with the dscl -change command, but I got sticked with it ... I also tried it in ServerAdmin and DirectoryInfo, but then I lost temporarily my OD users ...
Does anybody know how to change these values?

Hi
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7514212&#7514212
Be advised demotion to Standalone destroys completely everything to do with Open Directory: users, groups, mcx, passwords etc. Home Folders are not affected.
Archiving the LDAP Database retains everything. This can be restored after demotion and re-promotion. In my experience I've found problems when doing this as the previous domain tends to be referenced in some way in the restored database. Issuing changeip numerous times never quite 'fixes' it. It generally ends up being quicker to import exported users and groups and defining a password policy forcing all users to change their passwords at next log-on. It's a good idea to un-share the sharepoint used for home folder creation first before demotion otherwise WGM will moan and complain because the Directory Administrator account has gone.
Provided you've prepared your ground first you should be up and running in approx 3-4 hours. This assumes a user base of around 20-30 users. I'm assuming the Server is configured as Advanced. I can't give you advice regarding iCal. Don't take this advice if your server is configured as Standalone or Workgroup.
Whether you want access to all of the features available in Leopard Server or not my view is to always start out with Advanced. Its more flexible (generally) than the other two options.

Change ldap domain name

Hello,
I need to change my ldap domain name.
Can anybody supply me with some information about how to do this. Could not find anything in the internet.
Thank you
Wolfgang

Hi
I'm in agreement with harry here but what I'm struggling to understand is why you are seeing this as a problem? I'm also struggling to see this as being a possibility in a single server environment if I understand your post correctly?
Promotion to OD Master with all that entails absolutely rests on a properly configured and tested internal DNS Service. The Kerberos Realm's foundation (and with that the ability of the server to perform its function as KDC and offer LDAP services) entirely depends on what is configured in the DNS Service. This will include the server name, domain name and tld. The Kerberos Realm automatically configures itself using that information. Likewise the searchbase.
Its more than possible to change the Realm name and with it the LDAP search base (in certain circumstances) and have an OD Master, however Kerberos won't start it won't need to as the KDC will be elsewhere. You generally see this when augmenting Windows AD with MCX. In that situation Realm name and search base will reflect what is set on the Active Directory. Client computers will use what is set there for contact and authentication information before looking at the OD Master for anything else.
Does this help? Tony

Changing of Domain part in email

I need to change the domain part of my company's email from [email protected] to
[email protected]
Besides exporting the entire LDAP into a LDIF and change in by using a text
editor to replace abc with xyz, is there any other way. I know how to do it
with ldapmodify statement on one entry but is it possible to do it for all
entry?
Any help appreciated.

Hi,
I was wondering if iPlanet has come up with a way to do multiple ldap modifies at once. I have been able to find one, but I noticed Oracle has other options (ldapmodifymt, bulkmodify).
Thanks.

Change LDAP Search Base: Is archive/recreate required?

This is the gist of the message that I'm getting while searching for an answer, but I wanted to ask it here just in case.
I have a MacOS X server (10.4.9) that I need to join to an Active Directory... it was originally on it's own domain (xserve.mydomain.ca) and will now be on the corporate domain (xserve.myorg.ca).
I've run changeip to change the IP address and switch over all the domain information. The forward and reverse lookups are happy and working and while I had to recreate home directories for some users, in the end, everything worked fairly well.
Now I need to take the next step in the integration and get LDAP changed over to reflect the new FQDN. It is current dc=xserve, dc=mydomain, dc=ca ... so it needs to be dc=xserve, dc=myorg, dc=ca
Is archiving the LDAP database... switching to Standalone... and recreating the OD Master with new LDAP search base the only way to make the change?
And if so... does it actually work? (Home Directories don't matter too much.. but recereating 200 users, obviously would suck).
Thank you very much.

I'm hoping for a little detail here.
The LDAP archive that is created through Server Admin
is... comprehensive... ie. there are a LOT of
different files in there.
Of course as it isn't only a LDAP archive but contains the PasswordServer database, the kerberos database, server settings ...
Where do I start in terms of "mangling" the data
(which I assume means redoing all references to the
old LDAP domain?
You would need to export only the LDAP database via the appropiate ldapsearch command.
As you begin to see this task is quite complex and without some decent knowledge about Mac OS X Server in general and specifically LDAP this task is doomed to fail. :o/
You can start your way with this book:

Interesting Presence issue and changing the domain

I've got an interesting problem that I recently posted about in a different discussion forum.
Basically I've got a presence setup. This is federated with an OCS. The OCS domain is something like company.com This is the same as the email domain, and the SIP uri's are sip:[email protected]
The issue is that when the presence server was set up, the proxy domain was set as something like cmp.local. cmp.local is the domain for the entire internal MS infrastructure. The problem appears to be that this conflicts with the internal domain. So when looking up in the directory instead of getting the OCS domain it gets replaced with the cmp.local. Functionally this results in the jabber client being unable to add federated OCS contacts from the directory as they just get added as internal jabber contacts.
I'm thinking of changing the domain on the presence server to something like jabber-cmp.local, i.e. a domain that doesnt exist. Once we migrate to jabber we'll change the domain again back to company.local so we can federate externally properly. Does anyone have any experience of doing something similar? Any pitfalls anyone can point out?

Federation can only be setup a few ways
- Intra domain (company.com   federated to im.company.com)
- inter domain (company.com federated to abc.com)
- Intra domain partitioned (Company.com federated to company.com)
You need to define this to make any of the with CUPS 8.6.4 (you should run latest and greatest).   Now, depending on which version OCS you have R1 or R2 is important as well.
Put the CUPS server in the domain you want it in. Some of the SIP paramenters can be pushed for Jabber 4 windows XML file IE:
msRTCSIP-PrimaryUserAddress
true
sip:>

Change the Domain of a data elements in the extraction structure

Hi experts
I was transport a extraction structure from BW DEV to BW QA System, but in STMS of QA System generated an error "Active ABAP Dictionary" then in T-code SE11 -> visualize -> Components Tab i am watching that the Data Type of a component ZBITRST is QUAN whereas in BW DEV system the Data Type is CHAR which is correct
by double-clicking the component I am watching that the domain of both is different, How I can change the domain in QA System / BIC/VQUAN_000013_000003 to / BIC/VCHAR_000003_000000?
or What is the solution to this problem?
Thanks

Hi
As you told you have correct domain for the info object in DEV system, transport this single info object through one transport.
now check whether domain of the info the info object is correct.
now you can import the extraction structure.
If you want to change the domain type, goto edit mode of info object and select the data type CHAR instead of UNIT and activate the info object. this will change the domain type of your Info Object.

Changed the domain of the server where BO Edge is installed

We changed the domain of the server where BO Edge resided and the domain of our database server. We are not getting the error message "Failed to register with name server. Reason: a server of this name already exists". This occurs whenever we try to start any of the servers from the CCM. What are or did we do wrong?

My understanding is that Edge is the same base code as XI 3.0 and it shouldn't have any errors when changing domain name or hostname. I don't have this version installed but in the CCM is there a CMS (+other services) or a SIA?
I'm not sure what changing the domain on the DB server would do, What type of DB are you using?

Tim

Anyone Seen this Message Before "Configuration changes for domain saved to the repository."

I'm running into this situation where one of my WLS servers is generating the following
messages "Configuration changes for domain saved to the repository." This process
of saving to a repository is causing an issue on start-up. Typically my deployments
take 2-3 minutes on start-up. They are now taking 10 minutes. I've made no changes
to my application. I've been able to identify that this process of saving to a
repository is the main issue of contention....
Anyone know what the message means? Anyone know how to disable this message?

This is just WebLogic writing back changes to config.xml, which it does from time
to time for reasons like:
- your app deployment has changed.
- you've reconfigured something in the console.
etc...
WebLogic just spins this off into a handy execute thread, so it would be surprising
if this was causing your app deployment to slow down (how do you know it is).
In my experience, slower than normal app deployments are usually down to:
- waiting for database connections.
- waiting for connecitons to other external resources.
Remember (in WLS6.x anyway) initialisation is done serially on the main thread,
so if something's slow, everything gets blocked behind it.

Change of Domain Name causes loss of podcasts - help please

Hi all
For the past 16 months i've posted monthly podcasts on iTunes. Last month I changed the domain name of the website they were pinged from and (I assume because of this) my podcasts are no longer on iTunes.
What's the best way to get my podcasts back? Do I:
1 - contact iTunes as if this is a brand new podcast and then submit them all?
2 - get iTunes to recognise that they are the same podcasts without having to go through the process for new podcasts (and if so, what is the best way to do that?)
3 - other?
thanks in advance for your help.

How to change the Domain name of portal

Hi All,
We've developed an application using the WDA(Web Dynpro for ABAP) on BI 7.0 and in this we are displaying the BI reports as well. This whole appliaction works fine when we run this on the BI portal 7.0. But when we run it from the Enterprise Portal 6.0
the reports don't show up and it goes in the never ending loop. After research we found that this is happening because the
Domain names of the BI portal and the Enterprise Portal are not the same. And as per one of the SAP note the prerequisite for the WDA application to run on the EP portal is to have the same domain name on both the portals.
Now we are planning to change the domain name on the BI portal.
Does anyone let me know how and where we need to go and change this Domain name ?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
Alok Varma

Hi,
first step is to configure your DNS server. There has to be a name resolution for portal.domain.tld to your portal server's IP address.
Right now I don't have access to Visual Administrator, so I cannot check if there is any domain specific configation to be done on the server side.
As for the SSO between your Portal and WDA: you'll have to recreate the portal server certificates and import it into the ABAP system.
The Logon Ticket MYSAPSSO2 has to be issued to the new domain by the portal! If not, your browser won't sent this cookie to the BI system and no SSO data will be transmitted to the BI system.

When we transported the domain, it is creating short dump. Is there anything I missed in above change?
This is an urgent issue. Kindly respond.
Thank you.
Ashish

Hi Asish,
Yes, you do need to activate after changes are done.
Usually when you reactivate the domain, system will show the tables(s) and structure(s) which get impact and ask you to reactivate as well.
