Re: ldapadd "operations error"?

[Martin Smith <mfsmith@erols.com>]

Still looking for help on this.  Question: Should my procedure for 
starting over with the database work?  That is, can one delete all the 
DB files in the directory and then pick up the QuickStart instructions 
at the point where one is slappadding the initial top-level entries?

Thanks,

Martin
