Hi,

openldap has a well defined API. You should be able to extract your data from your tables and build the ldif file(s) to populate your LDAP schema. However, that assumes that the openldap infrastructure (service, schema, object model, etc.) is already built. I can't tell it that is true based on your question that asks how to create a user based on it (Oracle), with the next one asking how to disable access based on it. Aren't you doing a one time cutover from your current table based setup to LDAP?
