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.

This program can now migrate schema entries (attributes and object classes) from OpenLDAP to Fedora Directory Server. It does that over LDAP, with both the servers running, so there is no need to restart your FDS, nor is there any need to copy the schema files from OpenLDAP and modify them to work with FDS.
This has been tested. By me. Once. If the program eats your schema, your directory, your dinner, or your cat, then you need to examine the warranty provisions of the GNU General Public License to determine what recourse you have (none, that is). Be careful and make plenty of backups before you start.
Thanks. http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Howto:MigrateToLDAP

... since it works for OpenLDAP migration too (including schema entries) and that's where most people would be looking.
Done.
