I am getting the following error when I attempt to add the account objectclass 
to an existing LDAP account:

invalid structural object class chain (inetOrgPerson/account)

I read an explanation of which the cliffnote version was "an person is a 
person, not an account, so the two objectclasses can't be on the same entry".

While that logic makes sense, I have many accounts on a Sun Directory instance 
that have both objectclasses.  I am trying to migrate entries from Sun to an 
existing OpenLDAP instance, but because of this error I am unable to implement 
this objectclass.  Ultimately, the functionality I am trying to implement is 
Linux Authentication.  I have successfully added posixAccount and shadowAccount 
objectclasses, but am unable to add account.

Any thoughts?  Thanks much!!!,
