File Formats for Local Device Authentication User Information Files

The following three file formats can be used for importing and exporting user information:
SDL format
NetSpot Accountant 3.x format
NetSpot Accountant 4.x format
NOTE
It is recommended you use the SDL Format when exporting and importing user information with imageWARE Accounting Manager (NetSpot Accountant).
Only the information for users that have a department ID assigned are exported with the NetSpot Accountant formats. If no users have department IDs assigned, a 0 byte file is exported.
If you use a NetSpot Accountant format, you may not be able to import users that are automatically registered.
SDL Format
The SDL format is the format used for local device authentication. This format adopts the LDIF file format, which sues the ldif file extension. LDIF (LDAP Data Interchange Format) is used for transferring directory information between LDAP directory servers, etc.
Each record in an LDIF file is separated by at least one empty line. A record comprises of multiple lines that do not include any empty lines. Each record contains an ID line (which can be omitted) and multiple entries. Each entry contains an attribute name and attribute value separated by a colon. If only blank spaces appear after the colon, that entry is ignored. However, if an entry is divided by a line break code and one space, that line break code and space are ignored. Characters after this are handled as if they are connected to the previous line, even if they are spaces. Either carriage return + line feed or line feed only can be used as the line break code. Line breaks are not allowed before the colon. Lines starting with # are ignored.
UTF-8 is used for character encoding.
Example:
dn: uid=J00001
userPassword: {sdl}1234567890abcdefghijklmn
canonUid: 1000001
canonPwd: 1010001
