Here is the scenario.

1) Add new user (example testid) dn: uid=testid,o=xyz.com (with the attibutes and its values, etc) 2) ldapsearch -LLL -x -b uid=tesid,xyz.com finds the testid 3) Delete the user (testid) dn: uid=testid,o=xyz.com changemodify: delete 4) ldapsearch -LLL -x -b uid=tesid,xyz.com No match for DN (Good) 5) Add same user back (testid) dn: uid=testid,o=xyz.com (with the attibutes and its values, etc) 6) ldapsearch -LLL -x -b uid=tesid,xyz.com unable to retrieve the testid (Problem)

I know the testid is in ldap, because went thru ldap browser and did see the entry.

I then did /etc/init.d/ldap stop and /etc/init.d/ldap start

After entering ldapsearch -LLL -x -b uid=tesid,xyz.com, it works,

Why does this happen?

Help is highly appreciated.
