configuring ldap client

[Melanie Pfefer <melanie_pfefer@yahoo.co.uk>]

hi
I have a Solaris 10 client that I want to configure ldap instead of dns on it.

I am using this:
ldapclient init -a profileName=default -a domainName=siroe.com -a proxyDN=cn=proxyagent,ou=profile,dc=siroe,dc=com -a proxyPassword=password ZEUS

I am getting this:

Failed to find defaultSearchBase for domain siroe.com
I also noticed that the nisDomain attribute is missing:

ldapsearch -h ZEUS -b "dc=siroe,dc=com" "nisdomain=*" returns nothing.

This attribute (nisDomain)is necessary for Solaris clients to find a server for a specific domain. The client searches for an entry on the LDAP server that has the nisDomain matching the desired domain. The DN for the entry found will be used as the BaseDN for the naming information.


Any idea please?

thanks
