Using the following command:

No matter what I do, it says: ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)

Here is my slapd.conf

database bdb suffix "dc=example,dc=com" rootdn "cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com" rootpw secret

Here is example.ldif:

dn: dc=example,dc=com objectclass: dcObject objectclass: organization o: Example Company dc: example

dn: cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com objectclass: organizationalRole cn: Manager

I saw another person with the same issue but it was because the slapd.confinformation did not match the information being passed to ldapadd, I already correct that as you can see and it still does not work. What else am I missing?

Thanks, Jon

Make sure you host is valid. Add -H ldap://your.host.here:389

It may be trying localhost and your server may not be listening on 127.0.01:389
