Re: no structuralObject in entry?

["Charlie Pauch" <perlldap@wrkcs.net>]

used
ldapmodify -D "our manager dn" -W -f cpauch.ldif

cpauch.ldif is

dn: "uid=cpauch,dc=wrkcs,dc=net"
changetype: modify
replace: sn
sn: Poochy

and thats it.  It helpfully informs me
ldapmodify: update failed: uid=cpauch,dc=wrkcs,dc=net
ldap_modify: Internal (implementation specific) error (80)
    additional info; no structuralObjectClass operational attribute

I watched the debug and this particular line seemed to indicate the trouble:

No structuralObjectClass for entry (uid=cpauch,dc=wrkcs,dc=net)
entry failed schema check: no structuralObjectClass operational attribute


I'm running 2.1 on a suse 9.0 linux machine.

so, thats where I am.  Any insight would be appreciated.
