I would appreciate some basic guidance as to what to do, or some direction to the proper documentation or guide for solving "invalid DN" while attempting to add entries to the directory.
Interesting... I've never seen any one try to use x500UniqueIdentifier as a DN component before. It looks like it expects a bitstring:
olcAttributeTypes: ( 2.5.4.45 NAME 'x500UniqueIdentifier' DESC 'RFC2256: X.500 unique identifier' EQUALITY bitStringMatch SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.6 )
The syntax leads us to:
https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2252.txt
Which, in section 6.3, gives us the requirements and an example:
6.3. Bit String
( 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.6 DESC 'Bit String' )
Values in this syntax are encoded according to the following BNF:
bitstring = "'" *binary-digit "'B"
binary-digit = "0" / "1"
Example:
'0101111101'B
So clearly, the value your application is supplying is not valid, thus the error is correct. I would suggest using a more appropriate attribute.
