Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs
https://help.ubuntu.com/8.10/serverguide/C/openldap-server.html has the following as step 6: To add the entries to the LDAP directory use the ldapadd utility: ldapadd -x -D cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com -W -f example.com.ldif However, no where in the preceding setup was the user instructed to create a cn=admin,dc=example,dc=com entry. In fact, since this is the *first* step that loads entries into the database, and this DN was not used as the rootdn for the database, it can't even exist yet. The previously selected rootdn of cn=admin,cn=config. Otherwise, this step (and later steps fail). This DN is also used throughout the document for ACLs and other things, but it is never, that I can see, created or enabled for use. ** Affects: ubuntu-docs (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- openldap server doc has incorrect steps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/416539 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
