Hi,

I encounter a situation where I couldn't find any syntax errors in my ldif file but failed to use ldapadd to add entries. I didn't find any trailing spaces at the end of each objectClass. The following is the error message:

adding new entry "cn=LocalSales,ou=Netgroup,dc=mydomain,dc=com" ldapadd: Invalid syntax (21) additional info: nisNetgroupTriple: value #0 invalid per syntax

My ldif file is like the following:

# # LocalSales # dn: cn=LocalSales,ou=Netgroup,dc=mydomain,dc=com objectClass: nisNetgroup objectClass: top cn: LocalSales nisNetgroupTriple: (,luke_l,mydomain.com) nisNetgroupTriple: (,sam_c,mydomain.com) nisNetgroupTriple: (,amy_s,mydomain.com) nisNetgroupTriple: (,anita_c,mydomain.com) nisNetgroupTriple: (,jim_f,mydomain.com) description: Local Sales

# # Corporate Accountants # dn: cn=CorpAcct,ou=Netgroup,dc=mydomain,dc=com objectClass: nisNetgroup objectClass: top cn: CorpAcct nisNetgroupTriple: (,hannah_m,mydomain.com) nisNetgroupTriple: (,judy_j,mydomain.com) description: Corporate Accountants

I have included the following schema files in my slapd.conf:

include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/cosine.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/inetorgperson.schema include /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/nis.schema

Could anyone please help resolve the above problem? Thanks.

Luke
