Yes, but there is only one attribute value #2 in the attribute. Pay attention to what the error message tells you.
You were both right, thank you.
Turns out that all trailing spaces of the copied (and inserted) ldif sections were cut off (obviously during the copy process), so I had to manually add them in wrapped lines which happened to be wrapped at a space character... Tricky.
It might be easier for such small schema changes to use a GUI LDAP client to avoid exactly this kind of problem.
I don't see how that is relevant. The first problem is that he was trying to do a wholesale replace of a schema file. If instead he had just a diff of the old and new versions of the schema, he could of course have fed that into an ldapmodify operation - whether by GUI or by CLI.
Yes, he could have done this. With yet another tool required to create the LDIF diff. Or did you mean normal textual diff? This sometimes does not work.
With a normal input form it would have been pretty easy just to edit a single attribute value without piping stuff through several tools. It's one of the rare cases where a GUI is IMHO better.
Of course it's also a matter of personal taste.
