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
And here is the OpenLDAP command I run:
[root@localhost rgolding]# ldapadd -D cn=Manager,dc=my-domain,dc=com -w secret -f /tmp/newentry ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49) [root@localhost rgolding]#
And here is the LDAP entry I am trying to add:
[root@localhost rgolding]# more /tmp/newentry
dn: cn=Barbara Jensen,dc=my-domain,dc=com ObjectClass: person cn: Barbara Jensen cn: Babs Jensen sn: Jensen title: the world's most famous mythical manager mail: bjensen@example.com uid: bjensen
Thanks in advance
