Presentation

Welcome to the PixShellScripts wiki! It is the documentation of PixEye's shell scripts.

I get famous with those scripts when I was at the university (ISTY / UVSQ).

Selection

Here is a list of more interesting scripts with a short description:

1. clean-old-kernels.sh - useful to clean /boot/ partition, it keeps only 2 Linux kernels
2. ad2ldap.sh - import an LDIF file exported from an active directory (AD) with a mapping from AD to LDAP.

To be continued.
