On first blush that seems to have done it. I have to work through it but I like this output much better:

[20/May/2014:17:06:01 -0400] Syntax Check - "uid=7739428,ou=students,dc=philasd,dc=org": (modifyTimestamp) value #0 invalid per syntax
[20/May/2014:17:06:01 -0400] - import studentRoot: WARNING: skipping entry "uid=xxx,ou=students,dc=domain,dc=org" which violates attribute syntax, ending line 7527060 of file "/var/tmp/students_fixed.ldif"

thanks for your help,
