Hi,

Something is amiss and I decided to rebuild from the start.

I start the ldap server and go to see if everything is ok.

ldapsearch -x -b '' -s base '(objectclass=*)' namingContexts
# extended LDIF
#
# LDAPv3
# base <> with scope baseObject
# filter: (objectclass=*)
# requesting: namingContexts
#

dn:
namingContexts: dc=joescompany,dc=com
namingContexts: dc=my-domain,dc=com

# search result
search: 2
result: 0 Success

# numResponses: 2
# numEntries: 1

Should that second line even be there? Where in the world is it getting my-domain from?

Is it a default?

Thank you,
