Low Sensitivity/Aerospace Internal Use Only
Thanks Vikas, but the command as you provided it does not syntactically work. The -b option is not valid with ldapmodify or ldapadd.
So, I reran the command without the -b option and it too failed, with the original error I was getting: ldap_result: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)
Thanks again, Warron French, MBA, SCSA

That's means everything is fine. Please try to use this..
ldapmodify -W -x -D cn=admin,cn=config -b cn=config -f /tmp/abc.ldif
If it will not work. Then i will tell you another trick to short out this.

I attempted that command verbatim, substituting my own password, but the UNIX Bash SHELL does its substitution and part of my password uses '!9' in it. That was not working at all.
However, instead of using "-w yourpassword" I substituted in " -W " instead to get prompted at the command-line. That did work, and I got tons of reasonable information back about the configuration.
To be clear, I used the following on the command line since the UNIX shell wanted to substitute...
ldapsearch -W -x -D cn=admin,cn=config -b cn=config
I hope this gave you accurate feedback.

Hey,
Please check, below is working or not??
ldapsearch -w yourpassword -x -D cn=admin,cn=config -b cn=config

Hi Vikas, I have altered my command line to do the following now:
ldapmodify -x -D "cn=admin,cn=config" -W -d 256 -h wsf-LabLDAP.lab.aero.org -p 389 -P 3
I still get the exact same error, no change at all.

Hi,
That error is clearly saying. "unable to connect" that's mean you need to pass host as well..

Working on a CentOS-6.5 server, running LTB Project's slapd-2.4.38.
Someone suggested I implement a cn=admin,cn=config for a cn=config setup. (I don't know how to technically word that).
Anyway, I need to make TLS-related changes and was told to do the following command:
ldapmodify -x -D "cn=admin,cn=config" -W -d 256
...then at the blank line type the following, each on a single line:
Dn: cn=config Changetype: modify Add: olcTLSCipherSuite OlcTLSCipherSuite: HIGH:MEDIUM+TLSv1+SSLv3 <CTRL-D>
I have been getting an error reponse of: ldap_result: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)
This __ONLY__ occurs after I hit <CTRL-D>, not before. Yes, the daemon, slapd, is actually running, but after this failure it abruptly stops. I know this because in a separate terminal on the same system, I am running a while-loop with a ps -e | grep slapd in it.
Please note the "-x" option according to the man page for ldapmodify is supposed to Use simple authentication instead of SASL.
Thank you all for your help, hopefully you can:
1) tell me what this error means, and 2) how to fix my problem so that I can complete the olcTLSxxxx changes I need to implement.
