Ok Folks,Just before I was ready to tear my hair out...I have resolved all the issues...The first issue was that my root base dn was '*dc=nodomain*' and not '*dc=example,dc=com*'...I don't know why 'phpldapadmin' was showing it that way...
Perhaps because "dc=example,dc=com" may be the default suggestion from phpldapadmin? Did you ever bother to check phpldapadmin's config file?
I had to upgrade 'phpldapadmin' for it to reflect correct root base dn. For all Ubuntu users I would recommened to use 'phpldapadmin' from SFN rather using it from Ubuntu source.
This is a bad advise. Changing the config file is usually more than sufficient.
The second & new issue that I came across was that while adding organisational unit I was getting following error:*0x32 (LDAP_INSUFFICIENT_ACCESS)*I soon realised that I was logging in as '*cn=admin,dc=config*'. I logged out and logged in back as '*cn=admin,dc=nodomain*' and got rid of all the issues...
I don't even think "dc=config" exists, unless you created it yourself. You probably mean "cn=config".
If the base DN "dc=nodomain" is not what you need, you can easily run "dpkg-reconfigure slapd" to override the settings automatically set by the Ubuntu installation process.
Finally, you should probably spend some time reading an LDAP introduction, for instance http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/quickstart.html.
Good luck, -- Bjørn
