Chapter 1 Introduction 25
Using Directory Server Command-Line Utilities
Directory Server comes with a set of configurable command-line utilities that you
can use to search and modify entries in the directory and administer the server.
Chapter 7, “Command-Line Utilities,”describes these command-line utilities and
contains information on where the utilities are stored and how to access them. In
addition to these command-line utilities, Directory Server also provides
ns-slapd
command-line utilities for performing directory operations as described in
Appendix A, “Using the ns-slapd Command-Line Utilities.”
Using Directory Server Command-Line Scripts
In addition to command-line utilities, several non-configurable scripts are
provided with the Directory Server that make it quick and easy to perform routine
server administration tasks from the command-line. Chapter 8, “Command-Line
Scripts,” lists the most frequently used scripts and contains information on where
the scripts are stored and how to access them.
