Hi All,
Thank you very much for all your help.  I just realized that all the emails from openldap.org was going to deleted folder.

The quotes you're using appear to be high-bit instead of standard ascii. 
Did you cut and paste out of a word document or something?  --> Yes, I copy it from my note that was take down while doing my first configuration.

Any particular reason why you want to define your DB at root level? --> No reason, Because this Openldap instance is going to use for Oracle tnsname lookup only.

I will try out all your suggestions and report it back.  Once again, I am very appreciate all your help.

Garry

You may want to read the slapd.conf a little closer.  There are multiple
DB's defined.



database        bdb
suffix          "dc=cornell,dc=edu"
rootdn          "cn=admin,dc=cornell,dc=edu"

Although it's not clear to me the submitter is actually reading our
responses, given they didn't read the last set of answers.
