The system is correct - take a step back and you'll see it too ;)

bye Christian

Your search was for "cn=NextFreeUnixId...", but then tried to update "cn=NextFreeUnixIdPool...". Is the "Pool" on the end supposed to be there - does THAT entry exist (that's not what your searched for)?

Can someone help me to understand why I am getting this error? I'm wanting to modify 2 lines. I have:

ldapsearch -D 'cn=Manager,dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us' -b "cn=NextFreeUnixId,dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us" -w xxxxxxxx -x # extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <cn=NextFreeUnixId,dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us> with scope subtree # filter: (objectclass=*) # requesting: ALL #

# NextFreeUnixId, gomer.mdah.state.ms.us dn: cn=NextFreeUnixId,dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us objectClass: inetOrgPerson objectClass: sambaUnixIdPool cn: NextFreeUnixId sn: NextFreeUnixId uidNumber: 10019 gidNumber: 10000

# search result search: 2 result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 2 # numEntries: 1

so I create:

cat NextFreeUnuxID.ldif dn: cn=NextFreeUnixIdPool,dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us changetype: modify gidNumber: 105 uidNumber: 517

but when I run it:

ldapmodify -D "cn=Manager,dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us" -w xxxxxxxxx -x -v -f NextFreeUnuxID.ldif ldap_initialize( <DEFAULT> ) replace gidNumber: 105 replace uidNumber: 517 modifying entry "cn=NextFreeUnixIdPool,dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us" modify complete ldapmodify: No such object (32) matched DN: dc=gomer,dc=mdah,dc=state,dc=ms,dc=us

and I'm just stumped. why am I getting that error? cn=NextFreeUnixIdPool exists according to the ldapsearch.
