hi.

I configured the function of 'memberof overlay' these days. At first I used the methods on the webpage of http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/overlays.html, I add the codes of "overlay memeberof" in the file of slapd.conf,then I started the slapd service, the system give me an error "overlay "memberof" not found" . second,I googled the internet and found an article on this webpage:http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/RedmineLDAP,so I create two LDIF files as follow: the first file : dn: cn=module,cn=config objectClass: olcModuleList cn: module olcModulePath: /usr/lib/ldap olcModuleLoad: memberof the second file: dn: olcOverlay=memberof,olcDatabase={1}hdb,cn=config objectClass: olcMemberOf objectClass: olcOverlayConfig objectClass: olcConfig objectClass: top olcOverlay: memberof olcMemberOfDangling: ignore olcMemberOfRefInt: TRUE olcMemberOfGroupOC: groupOfNames olcMemberOfMemberAD: member olcMemberOfMemberOfAD: memberOf after I entered the command "ldapadd -x -D 'cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com' -W -f 1.ldif",the system give an error:"ldap_add: Insufficient access (50)"

please help me ,thanks.

First of all, memberof is an overlay and is not a module. You don't need the first file at all.

Second, are you running slapd with a configuration file or with cn=config? You can't modify cn=config if you are running with slapd.conf.

Third, how is your openldap compiled? There is a configure switch --enable-memberof.
