Thank you. It's a pity that we have so few LDAP tutorials that actually work safely. I'm still waiting Canonical to do something about this. This tutorial should only be used in LAN networks behind a firewall. (And even then with great care.)

This tutorial should be showing usage of smbldap-tools with LDAP too. It is very efficient & easy to manage the users with smbldap-tools.

Having problems with invalid dn syntax? Try replacing the double quotes with ones you typed out. Unicode copy/paste FTL.

[root@sw migrationtools]# ldapadd -x -W -D “cn=root,dc=abc,dc=net” -f ./base.ldif Enter LDAP Password: ldap_bind: Invalid DN syntax (34) additional info: invalid DN
