No I haven't and if I understand the subject
correctly so far I think you're suggesting that I issue the following
first:
ldapmodify -a -x -v -D "ou=Groups,o=University of Michigan,c=US" -W -f
d:\openLDAP\test.ldif
instead of
ldapmodify -a -x -v -D
"cn=Manager, o=University of Michigan, c=US" -W -f
d:\openLDAP\test.ldif
thanks

Subject: RE: parent does not exist
Here
is my first guess: have you added the parent dn: ou=Groups,o=University of
Michigan,c=US?
Hi Josh,
Thank you for your answers. I didn't see a 'Michigan list', under the mailing list
section. There's a 'general' list but it seems to be
closed.
In regard to my question as you suggested I'm sending the slapd.conf
and a part of the ldif file because it's very long.

Subject: parent does not exist
Hello all,
I'm new to openLDAP (one week) and
since I downloaded and installed the package on my NT machine I have
been reading a lot of the documents on openldap site. I'm running
my second test that came with the package and have some
question. If anyone could help me with the answers or where to
find comprehensive source of information (a book for people new to the
subject) I would greately appreciate.
[oberwetter, josh] For
a general intro to LDAP, I read "Understanding and Deploying LDAP
Directory Services" by Timothy Howes et al, and I often refer to
the various RFCs. But you should send general LDAP questions to the
Michigan list.
Answers to OpenLDAP questions can be found in
the mailing list archives, the Admin guide, the FAQ, and whatever
(mis)information is lying around the web. There is
no comprehensive source of info for OpenLDAP, unless you get
to know the code :-)
I'm working with openldap2.0.11. I am
trying to run one of the test under (\openldap-2.0.11\tests\data\
) and get the following error on the client:
adding new entry
"cn=All Staff,ou=Groups,o=University of
Michigan,c=US"
ldap_add: No such
object
ldif_record() = 32
[oberwetter,
josh] Perhaps somebody else knows exactly what tests you're
running. The first tests that I ran are described here http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin/quickstart.html
Send us the contents
of d:\openLDAP\test.ldif up to & including the entry that
fails (cn=All Staff,...), so that people who aren't familiar
with the specific test can help debug this common
error.
I am issuing the command:
ldapmodify -a -x -v -D
"cn=Manager, o=University of Michigan, c=US" -W -f
d:\openLDAP\test.ldif
Chasing through the diagnostics it
seems an attempt is made to add cn=All since it's the parent level
of cn=Manager. Then why am I getting
parent does not exist
on the server side?
thanks in advance for any
help
