Hi,

I am part way through writing this set of LDAP migration scripts.
Not finished yet but might be useful to someone in their current
state:

http://wiki.babel.com.au/index.php?area=Linux_Projects&page=LdapImport

To quote:

LdapImport.pl imports data into a destination LDAP server, from one of
two sources.  The data can come from either:

* Another (source) LDAP server, or
* /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow and /etc/group files.

Some attempt at schema checking and/or mapping is done.  Also, the
program will over-write existing entries in the destination LDAP server
if required.

This was originally designed as a tool to assist migration from OpenLDAP
to Fedora Directory Server but plans are to develop it into a general
purpose LDAP migration tool.

The tool is currently text based but there will be a GUI version
developed soon, possibly using Glade.

Some parts of these scripts are based on the well known tools by Luke
Howard.
