could not bind to ldap server with binddn and password
807567Sep 15 2004 — edited Oct 15 2004Hi!
I am trying on my Sun One webserver 6.1 to create a ldap directory service as the default ds.
I enter the base DN , bind DN and password and press Save. I now get the error message:
"could not bind to ldap server with binddn and password. Please check your bind DN and password".
These are examples of values I entered in the Configure Directory Service page:
Hostname: info
Port: 389
Use SSL : No
Base DN: ou=rep, o=company
Bind DN: cn=admin, ou=rep, o=company
Bind Pw: admin0
These are the values in my slapd.conf file:
suffix: "ou=rep, o=company"
rootdn: "cn=admin, ou=rep, o=company"
rootpw: admin0
etc.
Does anyone know what I'm missing? How come I can't attach ldap to my webserver?
I have five other directory services that are key files, but none of them are default. Do I need to delete these in order to create a Ldap dir. service?
