Thanks, yes i've read your link and can read in a LDIF schema from the
default directory or by specifying one on LdifFileLoader.

my main problem is changing the directories for output, how can i change the
location of where the ldap data is stored? What does setWorkingDirectory do,
and are there any release or environment restrictions to it (it seems to do
nothing for me)

thanks,
david
