Re: What DN (user name) I should use for connecting to ldap server?

Hi, I have ldap server started up in freebsd. I tried to test it with Apache Directory Studio. When I open a New Connection in the Studio, it asks for User name. I entered "root" as user name, then go for the connection... However I got following error message in ldap log file: Jun 21 23:14:51 hometest slapd[2417]: conn=1005 fd=11 ACCEPT from IP= 192.168.1.100:57297 (IP=192.168.1.20:389) Jun 21 23:14:51 hometest slapd[2417]: conn=1005 op=0 do_bind: invalid dn (root) Jun 21 23:14:51 hometest slapd[2417]: conn=1005 op=0 RESULT tag=97 err=34 text=invalid DN Jun 21 23:14:51 hometest slapd[2417]: conn=1005 fd=11 closed (connection lost) What value of DN I should enter in the ldap browser (Apache Directory Studio) in order to connect to the ldap server? I have ldap listening to the following ports: hometest:openldap # netstat -an | egrep '389|636' tcp4 0 0 192.168.1.20.636 *.* LISTEN tcp4 0 0 192.168.1.20.389 *.* LISTEN Your help is much appreciated Thanks Sam
