Lin.DS.Op.Init

Initializes a Linux object (user, group, container) operation (create, modify, set password)

Supported operations

·	Create Linux, Samba and E-mail user accounts

·	Edit properties for OUs, groups, accounts and any other kind of object

·	Set main group membership

·	Set or change password or password hash

It is possible to create any kind of object with this command, including OUs (Organizational Units) and groups, but it is recommended that you use the dedicated commands for OUs and groups to avoid unnecessary typing.

The Lin.DS.Op.Init command can not be used on its own, it must always be followed by at least one Lin.DS.Op.SetProperty command (specifies properties) and a Lin.DS.Op.Commit command (carries out the operation). Furthermore, a connection must be established with Lin.DS.Logon before any other Lin.DS.x command can be used.

Requirements

·	Linux server with OpenLDAP 2.0 or higher, configured to accept SSL connections on port 636.

·	A locally installed SSL certificate.
