I tried this "-x" and worked... no errors!
I was trying to do a SASL bind in spite of a simple one...
Thank you very much.
2007/8/28, Pierangelo Masarati ando@sys-net.it:
now i'm using ldapadd, and it wants me to enter a password... i tryed
my
RootDN password but it don't works... any idea of what kind of
password it
demands?
Try your birth date. Or the password associated to the identity you're using. Unfortunately I don't know what identity you're using.
p.
I mean "what kind of password", not "what password".
Sorry, I couldn't resist. But the only types of passwords I know are those that work and those that don't.
I'm using my RootDN user.
Then use your rootdn password, the one that's in rootpw.
I'm using
cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com password -> secret
(i think that when you talk about an "identity" you mean a DN,
An "identity" for SIMPLE bind is a DN; an identity for a SASL bind is whatever specified by the SASL mechanism in use. That's why I don't want to be more specific than you about the type of identity you're using, since I'm not you.
and this is the account i use to login to the OpenLDAP server from the servers i'm working with, and it works)
the command i used is:
ldapadd -f oufile.ldif -D "cn=Manager,dc=intranet,dc=techno,dc=com" -w secret
Well, if "cn=Manager,dc=intranet,dc=techno,dc=com" is your rootdn, if "secret" is your rootpw, and if you add a "-x" to select SIMPLE bind, that should work.
(all the dn, cn, dc, password and filenames are ficticious, of course)
of course.
