Greeting-
I have finally decided it is time to cry UNCLE! I have been trying for some
many weeks to get an openldap server up and running for central auth of my
flock of FreeBSD and GNU/Linux boxes (GNU/Linux is on the way out) with
no luck.
I had no problem building the openldap port, but I can not seem to in any way
load up a password database using the following LDIF
dn: uid=wynkoop,ou=People,dc=harapartners,dc=com
uid: wynkoop
cn: Brett Wynkoop
objectClass: account
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: top
userPassword: {crypt}*
loginShell: /usr/local/bin/bash
uidNumber: 1034
gidNumber: 1034
homeDirectory: /home/wynkoop
gecos: Brett Wynkoop
Here is the error returned:
[root at hp1 /home/wynkoop/MigrationTools-47]# ldapadd -x -h localhost < pass.wynkoop.ldif
adding new entry "uid=wynkoop,ou=People,dc=harapartners,dc=com"
ldap_add: Invalid syntax (21)
additional info: objectClass: value #0 invalid per syntax
[root at hp1 /home/wynkoop/MigrationTools-47]#
I have tried other methods to populate the ldap database as well, but it
always boils down to a syntax error on something in the ldif file.
HELP! If I can not get this going I am going to have to fall back to NIS....
ICK.
Thanks guys!
