Here are some tips if you are using LDAP Explorer:

  1. After you have logined on, you can see two windows LDAP Explorer interface: one is directory server tree window; another is entry content window.

  2. in the tree window:

    'plus/minus' and 'opened/closed' folder icons let you expand or collapse a branch of the tree

    click Relative Distinguish Name will display its content in entry content window

  3. in entry content window:

    'Add/New' button means you can add or new an entry. Only you need is to change the first item in this window - Distinguish Name. Then a duplicated entry (except Distinguish Name) will be added to Directory Server

    'Modify' button lets you change and add and delete attributes with its value in this entry. You can do them all in an transaction. In INPUT field, you can type new value for an attribute or blank it (means you want to delete this attribute); In New Attr INPUT field you can type new attribute name with its value; 'browse' button let you upload binary file (e.g graphic file, jpeg, gif and png support so far and the suffix of attribute name must be ';jpeg', ';jpg', ';jpe', ';gif' or '.png') to Directory Server

    'Delete' button means DELETE this ENTRY! NOT means delete an attribute

    'Rename' button lets you rename the Distinguish Name of an entry

    No matter what action you want to submit, Add/New, Modify or Rename, you can add/modify/delete attributes at the same time in the transaction.
