I didn't like the way Debian setup the initial ldap database for me and want to start over. I have tried purging the slapd package and reinstalling after keeping my modified slapd.conf as well as trying to manually remove each entry in the database. I just want a clean slate to start with so that I can use the Migration tools to set up a basic server for authenticating users.
In my most recent attempt I deleted the /var/lib/ldap/* files, put my slapd.conf file in place and started slapd. However, when I try to migrate the base system I get "Invalid credentials" errors. Basically, I want to do the following: 1. clear the directory completely 2. set the rootdn and rootpw in slapd.conf and other basic details such as indexes and access controls etc. I use slappasswd to generate the password and cut and paste into slapd.conf 3. start slapd 4. run migrate_base.pl >/root/base.ldif 5. run ldapadd -x -D "cn=admin,dc=mycompany,dc=com" -W -f /root/base.ldif Step 5 fails giving "ldap_bind: Invalid credentials". Can someone tell me how to do it? Cheers. Mark. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
