Re: ldap_add: Already exists

[Vincent Bonamy <vincent.bonamy@geomath.fr>]

Ok, you want to add dn: cn=xyz, dc=ubm,dc=com,dc=edu.
Your example.ldif should contain only what you want to add :

dn: cn=xyz, dc=ubm,dc=com,dc=edu
objectclass: organizationalRole
cn: xyz

only  !

and not

dn: dc=ubm, dc=com, dc=edu
objectclass: dcObject
objectclass: organisation
dc: ubm

: It already exists.

Bye,

vincent.
