[H-GEN] LDAP mystery error

[Mark Corben]

Hi

I am having trouble setting up a basic LDAP database as a test.

I have created a test LDIF file - datenbank.ldif.

When I run the command :
                        ldapadd -D "cn=Manager, o=testnet.de" -w secret 
< /etc/openldap/ldif/datenbank.ldif"

I get the following error:
                        ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: No such attribute

I am running SuSe 8.0 and have basically used the openldap package as it 
was installed from SuSe disks
I don't have a starting point - I suspect that the attribute needs to be 
defined in a file under the /etc/openldap directory
There is a directory /etc/openldap/schema which seems to be a whole lot 
of definitions but none seem to be for this attribute.
Am I barking up the wrong tree ??

Below are the ldap.conf and slapd.conf files I have modified to use the 
test database.

I am basically trying to get LDAP running so I can use my Netscape 
address book with it.

Thanks
