The guide at https://help.ubuntu.com/12.04/serverguide/openldap- server.html still leaves you with a non-functional ldap server when following it.
I applied the step in comment #5 but importing the example ldif gives "ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Documentation Packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-docs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/333733 Title: OpenLDAP credentials issue Status in Ubuntu Documentation: Invalid Status in “ubuntu-docs” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html At the "Populating LDAP" stage I was getting 'credentials (49)' errors. All previous activities seemed to work just fine, but not that. I eventually found that it worked if I first did: sudo su openldap I'm not sure whether I just found a way around another problem, or whether this was an expected action before ldap administration. It took me a while to find that because until then all seemed fine. It asked for passwords as expected, ans seemed to do actions as expected. G.
