Selim, That's not right. You put the root password on it's own line in slapd.conf. Edit slapd.conf, remove the line which contains the password on it's own, edit the rootpw line and paste the password generated by slappasswd. Alternatively, if you really want to do it from command line, remove the rootpw line altogether then save slapd.conf, and type something like the following in: # echo -e 'rootpw\t\t' `slappasswd -s foo` >> /etc/openldap/slapd.conf && service ldap restart Cheers, Gonzalo. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
