RE: Invalid Credentials Error



 
I believe you want to use -D "cn=root,dc=abcdomain,dc=com" so that you authenticate as your rootdn, not your suffix.

Subject: Invalid Credentials Error

Every time use the ldapadd command below I get the following error message:

 

COMMAND:    /usr/local/bin/ldapadd -D "dc=abcdomain,dc=com" -W < aisdefault.ldif

 

ERROR I GET: Invalid credentials

 

When it asks for a password, I type in "secret"  which is located in the slapd.conf file below.

 

I have read the docs, but I know I'm overlooking something stupid... I just wish I could pin point it.

 

Any help will be HIGHLY appreciated!
