How do you add a user to a group using Apache Directory Studio

Inquisitor Shm picture Inquisitor Shm · Nov 28, 2016 · Viewed 13.8k times · Source

I am using Apache Directory Studio to set up an initial user on an LDAP partition. I have added the user, and I have a group (Administrators) that I am trying to add that user to.

Users are ou=users and groups are ou=groups and where copied from ou=system. The user was created by adding an inetOrgPerson class entry.

How do I add a user to a group? What kind of class would I use and what attributes are required?

I feel I am missing a lot of information with LDAP. I got this far by ghacking (googling and hacking - the least efficient thing you can do). So, where do I go that will tell me what to do and how to get it done in a cook-book style guide, or at least some sort of detailed reference on the classes and schemas that would define what each is used for

Any help is highly appreciated!
