HI I'm taking my first steps into setting up an OpenLDAP/PAM setup and I've managed to get the server + client speaking but I think I might of screwed up my schemas or got myself very confused with some googling. Current setup

Centos 5.x latest

Server

[root@host-95-154-194-53 tmp]# rpm -qa | grep -i openldap openldap-2.3.43-3.el5 openldap-clients-2.3.43-3.el5 openldap-servers-2.3.43-3.el5

[root@host-95-154-194-53 tmp]# cat /etc/openldap/slapd.conf include /etc/openldap/schema/core.schema include /etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema include /etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema include /etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema logfile /var/log/openldap allow bind_v2

I imported them with

ldapadd -D "cn=Manager,dc=damnvps,dc=com" -W -f /tmp/passwd.ldif-x ldapadd -D "cn=Manager,dc=damnvps,dc=com" -W -f /tmp/passwd.ldif -x ldapadd -D "cn=Manager,dc=damnvps,dc=com" -W -f /tmp/hosts.ldif -x

However trying to pull out anything via ldapsearch gives

root@host-95-154-194-53 tmp]# ldapsearch -x # extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <> with scope subtree # filter: (objectclass=*) # requesting: ALL #

# search result search: 2 result: 32 No such object

# numResponses: 1

What have I missed?

thanks
