hi,

chaning the order of the *.schema inside slapd.conf didn't help... can someone tell me what is wrong about this ldif format/slapd.conf.... :/

LDIF: dn: cn=fbar,ou=People,dc=vub,dc=ac,dc=be

objectClass: top objectClass: person objectClass: organizationalPerson objectClass: inetOrgPerson objectClass: posixAccount objectClass: inetLocalMailRecipient objectClass: shadowAccount

uid: fbar sn: Bar givenName: Foo cn: fbar userPassword: {crypt}56juWXAises5F loginShell: /bin/sh uidNumber: 14201 gidNumber: 20744 homeDirectory: /u/fbar gecos: Foo Bar mail: fbar@vub.ac.be displayName: Foo Bar

slapd.conf # Schema and objectClass definitions include /etc/ldap/schema/core.schema include /etc/ldap/schema/cosine.schema

include /etc/ldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema include /etc/ldap/schema/nis.schema

ldapadd -c -x -D cn=admin,dc=vub,dc=ac,dc=be -W -f /root/users.ldif gives:

Hello,

what schema do i need to have configured in slapd.conf to use this ldif file:

dn: cn=aderaede,ou=People,dc=vub,dc=ac,dc=be objectClass: top objectClass: person objectClass: organizationalPerson objectClass: inetOrgPerson

this objectclasses are all included in inetorgperson.schema

...

objectClass: posixAccount objectClass: inetLocalMailRecipient objectClass: shadowAccount

this objectclasses are all included in nis.schema

...

I have the following configured in slapd.conf # Schema and objectClass definitions include /etc/ldap/schema/core.schema include /etc/ldap/schema/cosine.schema include /etc/ldap/schema/nis.schema include /etc/ldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema include /etc/ldap/schema/openldap.schemaµ

that is all you need, but you should change the sequence,

1. core.schema
2. cosine.schema
3. inetorgperson.schema
4. nis.schema

Thx Dieter, that seemed to be the problem... objectclass inetLocalMailRecipient wasn't needed at all :/

Is this (with empty lines) your original ldif file?

You have included objectclass inetLocalMailRecipient, which is described in misc.schema, but you have neither added any attribute of this objectclass nor have you included misc.schema
