I am trying to setup a server and running into an issue whereby I cannot authenticate using the rootdn. (I am new to OPENLDAP so apologies in advance if this is a basic question)
The problem is I get "Invalid Credentials" returned
Here is an excerpt from my Slapd.conf file
database bdb suffix "dc=my-domain,dc=com" checkpoint 1024 15 rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com" # Cleartext passwords, especially for the rootdn, should # be avoided. See slappasswd(8) and slapd.conf(5) for details. # Use of strong authentication encouraged. rootpw secret rootpw {crypt}ijFYNcSNctBYg
Don't use crypt passwords. Use the slappasswd command to generate yourself a nice SSHA hash.
