Problems with ldapadd and/or ldif file

["Joshua Poling-Goldenne" <josh@eswoosh.com>]

Hello,

I am a newbie to LDAP and other directory services and am having problems
adding to my database.  I have looked over my ldif file several times and it
seems to be okay; however, I get an error every time I try to add it.


Here is my ldif file (joshtest.ldif):

dn: dc=eswoosh,dc=com
objectclass: dcObject
objectclass: organization
dc: eswoosh
o: eswoosh.com, Inc.

dn: cn=Manager,dc=eswoosh,dc=com
objectclass: organizationalRole
cn: Manager

dn: ou=development,dc=eswoosh,dc=com
ou: development
objectclass: organizationalUnit

dn: uid=jdawson,ou=development,dc=eswoosh,dc=com
objectclass: person
objectclass: organizationalPerson
objectclass: inetOrgPerson
uid: jdawson
givenname: Jerald
sn: Dawson
cn: Jerald Dawson
telephonenumber: 555-555-5555
o: eswoosh.com
mail: temp1@eswoosh.com

dn: uid=joedawson,ou=development,dc=eswoosh,dc=com
objectclass: person
objectclass: organizationalPerson
objectclass: inetOrgPerson
uid: joedawson
givenname: Joseph
sn: Dawson
cn: Joe Dawson
cn: Joseph Dawson
telephonenumber: 555-555-5555
o: eswoosh.com
mail: temp2@eswoosh.com


I have tried to add entries by typing:

sh-2.04$ ldapadd -D "cn=Manager,dc=eswoosh,dc=com" -w secret -f
joshtest.ldif -x


Unfortunately, this command provides me with the following error:

adding new entry "dc=eswoosh,dc=com"swoosh,dc=com" -w secret -f
joshtest.ldif -x
ldap_add: Unknown error
        additional info: next_id add failed

ldif_record() = 80


Try as I can, I cannot figure out what the problem is and how to rectify it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
