If there is no password in slapd.conf, how can it be in slapd.conf, and hashed? I assume you mean there's a rootpw line in slapd.conf that is hashed. Simply run slappasswd to generate the hash of a password you know, and update slapd.conf. Given the limited information you've supplied, that's the best shot in the dark I can make. --Quanah -- Quanah Gibson-Mount Principal Software Engineer Zimbra, Inc -------------------- Zimbra :: the leader in open source messaging and collaboration
