Re: Need help with import *.ldf

I'm anticipating that the problem is that you need to "modify" this
particular attribute, rather than "add" it. You also probably want to make
sure that your first line isn't improperly wrapping. The error reported
"error on line 2: Object Class Violation". Well, you can't start a line
with "Settings", so that would be part of the problem as well.

If you are just adding 2 entries to the Turflist, why don't you just use
ADSIEdit? Constructing the proper LDIF file for this will take loads more
time than simply adding the entries. ADSIEdit (if you haven't used it
before) is included in the Windows Support Tools (which is on the CD in the
/support/tools folder). Navigate to Configuration, Services, Microsoft
Exchange, Your Org Name, Global Settings, Message Delivery, Default Message
Filter properties, then scroll down until you see the msExchTurfListNames
attribute and add the entries you want.

If you *really* want to use LDIF to import this, look at the link I sent
earlier. The changetype needs to be set to "modify", not "add". There also
needs to be a "-" at the end of the entry - the site I included earlier
shows you the correct context for modifying a record. I'd just be careful
with this, though - if you aren't careful, you could completely overwrite
anything that's in there now.

Ben,
thx again for reply.
this is the text in the file;
dn: CN=Default Message Filter,CN=Message Delivery,CN=Global
Settings,CN=INTERLOGICA,CN=Microsoft
Exchange,CN=Services,CN=Configuration,DC=interlogica,DC=nl
changetype: add
msExchTurfListNames: *@kentmaster.com
msExchTurfListNames: *@mail.ru
I hope you can see what's going wrong.

Kind regards,
addy

I don't know what's wrong without looking at the ldif file. All I can
say
is that the format of the file itself is probably incorrect.

What does line 2 of your import file contain?

You don't have to specify a filter when you are importing.

Try it again just doing ldifde -i -f senderfilter.ldf

Also, make sure that you have the format of the import file correct,
otherwise it won't work.

Refer to the following site for ldifde help.
