Greetings all fellow Fedora Directory Server users!


Is it possible to dump the database to an LDIF file as a non-root user ?

I have no problem doing this as root.

I would like to run
/usr/lib/dirsrv/slapd-example/db2ldif -a /tmp/dbdump.ldif -n userRoot
from a remote machine via ssh and I would really like to avoid 
connecting to the machine as root.

Has anyone had any experience in doing this if it is at all possible ?

Thank you.
