Welcome to the forum.
Unfortunately your request is not clear. Do you want the user sitting in front of the terminal to key in that unusually stritctly formatted, voluminous, and error prone 6 line data record, or do you need to supply that structured text to ldapmodify? Does ldapmodify read from stdin?
And, please use CODE tags as required by forum rules!

lr_environment
LR_ENVIRONMENT.IN(1) LogReport's Lire Documentation LR_ENVIRONMENT.IN(1)
NAME
lr_environment - Export Lire configuration in shell script form
SYNOPSIS
eval `lr_environment`
DESCRIPTION
The lr_environment command is used to import the Lire configuration in Lire shell scripts.
All of Lire configuration variables will be written in a format that can be evaled by the shell.
Shell scripts don't usually have to use that command, since it is done by the defaults file sourced by each command.
The old names used by when the configuration was done in shell script are also exported by this script for backward compatibility.
