Re: Problem getting started with openLDAP



Hi,

You should not add cn=Manager entry via ldif file, its already there in
sldap.conf file.

try with ldif file:

# example, com
dn: dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: dcObject
dc: example

# People, example, com
dn: ou=People,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: People

# Groups, example, com
dn: ou=Groups,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: Groups

# nobody, People, example, com
dn: uid=nobody,ou=People,dc=example,dc=com
cn: nobody
sn: nobody
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: sambaAccount
objectClass: posixAccount
gidNumber: 514
uid: nobody
uidNumber: 999
homeDirectory: /dev/null
pwdLastSet: 0
logonTime: 0
logoffTime: 2147483647
kickoffTime: 2147483647
pwdCanChange: 0
pwdMustChange: 2147483647
smbHome:
homeDrive: D:
profilePath:
rid: 501
primaryGroupID: 514
lmPassword: NO PASSWORDXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
ntPassword: NO PASSWORDXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
acctFlags: [NU         ]
loginShell: /bin/false

I've run slapd with a high debug level and I think the following is the
important part of the logs:
>
> conn=0 op=1 ADD dn="dc=example,dc=com"
> bdb_dn2entry_rw("dc=example,dc=com")

> send_ldap_result: err=21 matched="" text="objectclass: value #0 invalid
per syntax"
> send_ldap_response: msgid=2 tag=105 err=21
>
> In particular the "objectclass: value #0 invalid per syntax" would imply
that my "objectclass:" as defined in my .ldiff file was incorrect but it
looks ok to me!  I'm new to all this ldap stuff so it doesn't really mean
much and I'm just guessing.  I would be very greatful if someone could tell
me what is wrong here or point me in the right direction!
