Thanks.
Here the real problem is when i create a new user on ldap server and use
that to try to connect using jexplorer.
As i said earlier, i am successfully able to connect to the LDAP server
using the "admin" user as in the DN - "cn=admin,dc=myadm,dc=local"
But, when i create a new user inside admin, say "simple", then when u use
the base DN - cn=simple,cn=admin,dc=myadm,dc=local then i face problem in
connecting with the error "invalid credentials"
My query is - why is the admin user able to login with the user DN but not
any newly added user.
Also, i am using Ubuntu 10.10 where fortunately or unfortunately the
slapd.conf is deprecated.
so i cant list the slapd.conf file :(
Thanks.
