Hi,
 Add this to your slapd.conf and restart slapd with the command (Redhat Linux)
/etc/rc.d/init.d/ldap restart .

rootdn "cn=Manager,o=Aurora Technologies, c=US"
rootpw fiddlesticks   

Now make a file called test.ldif that contains the following:

dn: o=Aurora Technologies, c=US
o: Aurora Technologies
objectclass: organization

Then run the following command from the same directory that the file test.ldif
is in:

ldapadd -D "cn=Manager,o=Aurora Technologies, c=US" -w fiddlesticks -f test.ldif

Then, buy yourself a book about how to use LDAP :-)

Regards,
Mike
