Help with the basics

[Wes Brown <wes@OneNet-ICI.com>]

I am working with OpenLDAP 1.2.0 with the newest Sleepycat Berkeley DB
2.7.3.  I have followed examples from many places but things still do
not work in every way that I want.

I am able to get information from the slapd server using Netscape's URL
form of ldap://localhost/cn=Elmer Weston Brown,o=OneNet ICI,c=US

My entry, however, contains multiple "cn" entries.
Netscape tells me "Not found" if I enter a URL
ldap://localhost/cn=Wes Brown,o=OneNet ICI,c=US

My entries are very few.  They came from this ldif information
dn: o=OneNet ICI, c=US
o: OneNet ICI
objectclass: organization

dn: cn=Elmer Weston Brown, o=OneNet ICI, c=US
cn: Wes Brown
cn: E. Weston Brown
cn: Elmer W. Brown

When I tried 'ldapsearch -h localhost objectclass=*' I received an error
of "ldap_seach: No such object"

I know that I am likely not doing something correctly, but I do not know
enough about this to know what.

I would like to get this LDAP server working as a company wide address
book for Netscape Communicator, Eudora Pro, et. al.

I keep getting weird results from the Netscape Directory search stuff.
I will get errors like "Failed to bind to 'OneNet ICI' due to LDAP error
'Unknown error' (0xFFFFFFFF)"

I can provide more information and questions as needed.  Thank you for
your assistance.  The mailing list archive has been very helpful to this
point, but I have not been able to find anything the even looks like the
problems I am having.
