Hi,

I have ldap server started up in freebsd.
I tried to test it with Apache Directory Studio.
When I open a New Connection in the Studio, it asks for User name.
I entered "root" as user name, then go for the connection...

However I got following error message in ldap log file:


Jun 21 23:14:51 hometest slapd[2417]: conn=1005 fd=11 ACCEPT from
IP=192.168.1.100:57297 (IP=192.168.1.20:389)
Jun 21 23:14:51 hometest slapd[2417]: conn=1005 op=0 do_bind: invalid dn
(root)

"root" is not a valid dn. You should use a dn as you have configured in your configuration file/db, or as you have created in your database. Such as:

cn=config
uid=joe,dc=whatever,dc=com

etc.
