Hi,

I've configured a META database to proxy two LDAP directories. Each of those 
LDAP directories is in turn a proxy for an Active Directory. My intention was 
to use the meta directory as a single point for user authentication, however, 
the vendor application does not allow one to use the OpenLDAP meta directory. 
Their LDAP authentication setup wizard performs a verification of the specified 
baseDN, i.e. the root DN (suffix) of the meta database, and this does not 
exist. As per the slapd-meta man page:

"When a search with base "dc=foo,dc=com" is attempted, if the scope is "base" 
it fails with  "no  such object";  in  fact,  the  common root of the two 
targets (prior to massaging) does not exist."

The vendor won't change their code to skip the verification, and recommended I 
use Microsoft's ADAM instead of OpenLDAP. I would prefer to leverage OpenLDAP, 
so does anyone have any recommendations as to what I could do?

Thanks,
Bryce
