Team, The "Auto-generate context entry" checkbox was already checked. I deleted and recreated, it seems the advise of restarting the server is the key. Now I have to learn understand and learn the best practises of ApacheDS in particular and LDAP in general.
This seems to work: [root@elasticmaster3 log]# ldapsearch -x -H ldap://ldap.kartikv.com:10389/ -b "dc=kartikv,dc=com" "(uid=tuser)" # extended LDIF # # LDAPv3 # base <dc=kartikv,dc=com> with scope subtree # filter: (uid=tuser) # requesting: ALL # # Test User + tuser, kartikv.com dn: commonName=Test User+userid=tuser,dc=kartikv,dc=com sn: user commonName: Test User objectClass: userSecurityInformation objectClass: top objectClass: inetOrgPerson objectClass: person objectClass: organizationalPerson objectClass: uidObject userPassword:: e1NTSEF9MDhQV1pyWXdsRWxQSEhHT2VnSXZvMHNVMnh3R0VnTmpKR1RpZmc9PQ= = userid: tuser # search result search: 2 result: 0 Success # numResponses: 2 # numEntries: 1 There is something wrong with my authconfig on my CentOS7 ldap client because I am not able to ssh to it. But that may be for another user list/forum. Thanks to everyone including the silent(but mentally/psychically helpful) ones for their patronage. This is my first encounter of a lively list during ANY weekend on ANY topic that I have EVER encountered. Appreciate the help.
