    I am attempting to import my NIS maps into Directory Server 5.2. I have
    attempted to use the included utility dsimport. However, I am getting
    errors when I run the command. I am using a document from Sun
    Blueprints, "Using dsimport to Convert NIS Maps to LDAP Directory
    Entries" for assistance.

    # dsimport -n -m nis.mapping -t passwd -D "cn=Directory Manager" -w
    mysecret passwd > /tmp/passwd.ldif
    /var/mps/serverroot/bin/slapd/server/dsimport: test: unknown operator
    Manager

    This appeared to me as a problem with a test within the dsimport
    script. I bypassed that portion of the script by forcing the arg
    variable without luck.

    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError:
    com/netscape/admin/dirserv/cmdln/DSImport

    Is the dsimport script the correct method for importing the NIS maps to
    DS5.2, or is there a better tool?

    Also, I am unable to locate the nis.mapping file.

    TIA,
    Marc B.
