Use any LDAP tool, such as ICE, to export your users and any attributes, along with the value of the attribute, to a text file. Make your modifications and use the same tool to import the data back into E-Directory. Once you learn how to do it, it is simple and fast. It is also dangerous if you don't know what you are doing. Please make sure you get the syntax correct and make sure that you create some test accounts to work with. I suggest that you go to support.novell.com read the documentation for ICE, LDIF and LDAP.
