Putting dbms_ldap in the metalink knowledgebase, I poked around a bit
and came up with this: http://www.oracle.com/technology/sam...api/index.html

Of course, the zip file was empty, but what can you do?

hi jg,

thank you for your input. As recommended by you, i used dnms_ldap, but
quickly i bumped into a problem, I am getting sizeexceeded limit. so i
decided to use /usr/bin/ldapsearch to dump few fields to a text file.
but now i'm clueless on how to import data from a text file to a
table.

output(sample) looks like this
=======================

# Alex Fontana, Users, nbc.com
dn: CN=Ali Fon,CN=Users,DC=nbc,DC=com
givenName: Ali
department: Infrastructure - 19622
employeeNumber: 034636
employeeID: 034636
mail: afon@nbcc.com
manager: CN=Bob Plu,CN=Users,DC=nbc,DC=com

# Aravind Pavu, Users, nbc.com
dn: CN=Aravind Pavu,CN=Users,DC=nbc,DC=com
givenName: Aravind
department: R&D: Performance - 72200
employeeNumber: 035870
employeeID: 035870
mail: apavu@nbcc.com
manager: CN=Raji Kam,CN=Users,DC=nbc,DC=com

Now how do I insert each block as one row into a table. Please give me
some hints.

thank you

google: oracle utl_file

for one method to get data from a file into oracle.
