Umm, what help? I didn't do much good, I see :)
Please, let others see this progress (err, what?) as well, I'm CC'ing this

ldif looks good, you're on the right track.

Last time you started too low in the tree, this time you got too high (the
node already exists), I guess...  Though, I don't know what that 'root
DSE' really is.

Try creating the 'ou=People' node now.  As you seem to have it's parent
present already, it should work:

dn: ou=People, dc=restorative-management, dc=com
objectclass: top
objectclass: organizationalUnit

(or something like that.. it's been a while)


May I also suggest you take a look at 'gq', it looks very capable, once
you get to know the interface.  Below's from 'apt-cache show gq':

Description: GTK-based LDAP client
 GQ is GTK+ LDAP client and browser utility. It can be used
 for searching LDAP directory as well as browsing it using a
 tree view. Features include:

Current version is 0.4.0 (in sid), but if you grab the sources i
(http://biot.com/gq/), it compiles nicely on potato as well.
