RE: attribute provided more than once

["Pete Veenbaas" <pete.veenbaas@sdrc.com>]

The problem had to do with the entries 'mail' and 'rfc822Mailbox', which are
the same (thx Kurt). Anyways, I removed the rfc822 entry, and was able to
populate my dir.

Thx!

Hi Pete,
The problem is,u need to provide a line while adding two entries.
Please leave a line gap and try the command.
and drop distinguishedName
use dn: instead.
Hope this helps,
regards,
Kanduri

Are you sure that dn: and distinguishedName: are not the same attribute?
Try dropping the distinguishedName line and maybe it will work.
