Hi everyone,
I''m sure this is a super easy question, however I didn''t see
it documented on the fds website...can someone tell me how to dump the fds
database to an ldif file?  I''m just looking to make a quick backup
routine while the database is online (not from the console).  Thanks for your
help.

Works great, thanks.
