LDAP woes - I have yet to successfully reference, add, change info as a
'Manager' yet. I can only start the server and reference it (look at it the
options) from the GQ package.

I am getting this when I try add info from the new ldif file, called
first.ldif:

[root@peyton openldap]# ldapadd -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=<floweb>,dc=<net>" -W
-f f
irst.ldif
Enter LDAP Password:
ldap_bind: Invalid credentials
[root@peyton openldap]#


Once again, I have run into password issues of some sort, most likely b/c of
an error on my part in creating the 2 character salt string via perl -e.
What are 2 good characters to use? Letters? Numbers? I used the letters 'i'
and 'v' in the line:

perl -e "print crypt ('blah','iv');"

With the crypt line put in place in the slapd.conf file - the plain text
password above it is commented out. Still no luck.

Currently, I am trying to use the plain text password, any plain text
password, to authent myself, and have commented out the crypt password line
altogether... but still nothing, the same error above. I have tried this in
root and as a regular user. What am I doing wrong?

I realize this might be out of bounds to this particular list, but wasn't
really sure.
