Hi all, I installed openldap on windows and successfully started the server. My slapd.conf file is :
# # See slapd.conf(5) for details on configuration options. # This file should NOT be world readable. # ucdata-path ./ucdata include ./schema/core.schema
pidfile ./run/slapd.pid argsfile ./run/slapd.args
####################################################################### # BDB database definitions #######################################################################
database bdb suffix "dc=org" rootdn "cn=admin,dc=org" # Cleartext passwords, especially for the rootdn, should # be avoid. See slappasswd(8) and slapd.conf(5) for details. # Use of strong authentication encouraged. rootpw {SSHA}XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX # The database directory MUST exist prior to running slapd AND # should only be accessible by the slapd and slap tools. # Mode 700 recommended. directory ./data # Indices to maintain index objectClass eq #database access control definitions access to * by dn="cn=admin,dc=org" write by * read
Now, I wanted to add the following entry to the file using ldapadd:
dn: cn=sailesh,dc=org objectclass:person sn:sailesh Descriptiom: user
It returned the following error :
request 1 done adding entry "cn=sailesh,dc=novell" request 2 done
ldap_add : No such object (32)
What is the mistake in that? Please help me in this regard.
Thanks in advance, D.Sailesh Kumar.

Well, I'm guessing the LDAP server doesn't know anything about "dc=novell".
So, unless you've massaged half of your example, and not the other, you've got some typos, and the ldif above is *not* what you are trying to ldapadd.

When your database suffix is
suffix "dc=org"
you can't expect to ldapadd
adding entry "cn=sailesh,dc=novell"
because there is no database that serves "dc=novell".
Either configure a database with an appropriate suffix, or change the entry you are attempting to ldapadd to match "dc=org".

The objectclass person requires the attribute types cn and sn, that is:
dn: cn=sailesh,dc=org objectclass: person sn: sailesh cn: sailesh description: user
