if my rootpw is 'sercret', so what actually is my password????
i try to ldapadd, prompted for password, after i key in my root password, i
got invavlid credential error. any idea?
I assume you're referring to the rootpw in slapd.conf... if rootpw is
"secret", that ***is*** the clear-text password. Otherwise, the password
is whatever was added to the directory for the binddn you're using on the
ldapadd command line.
If you're working with a basic default install and haven't yet changed the
password in slapd.conf (which you should do ASAP), the correct command line
is "ldapadd -D rootdn-from-slapd.conf-goes-here -w
rootpw-from-slapd.conf-goes-here
