I suggest you research into objectClasses and valid objectClass chains. The error you've gotten is quite correct, you've failed to provide a structural objectClass in your entry. Think of it in terms of object oriented programming -- Every entry object must be of a specific class, which can then be added onto with auxiliary information. posixAccount is auxiliary, you need to add a valid structural OC to your entry.

"account" may be the one you're looking for:

oh thanks:)

actually i have a doubt that where to add this???

objectclass ( 0.9.2342.19200300.100.4.5 NAME 'account'

SUP top STRUCTURAL MUST userid MAY ( description $ seeAlso $ localityName $ organizationName $ organizationalUnitName $ host ) )

--Quanah

so , we need to add a entry objectclass : account in our .ldif file right??? and do i need to add the above in schema file ????

sorry if my doubt is silly!! bare with me :)
