Populating the LDAP Database (ldaper.exe)

Ldaper.exe populates the LDAP database with user properties for all users on a selected e-mail domain. This may be particularly helpful after you have added a large number of users at once using the Adduser.exe utility.

Important: If you are upgrading from IMail Server prior to version 8.1, an LDAP database conversion occurs during installation. The conversion can take a lengthy amount of time depending on the number of domains to convert. If the LDAP data is not available after the upgrade, run the LDAP Convert utility to correct the issue. In the command line utility, type: ldaper /CONVERT /Y
