RE : ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server

["Christophe ROY" <christophe@coldfire-corp.com>]

As i've said, i've recompiled with tcp wrappers support, and added slapd
in hosts.allow

I have this problem:
debian:~# ldapadd -H ldap://localhost -D "cn=Manager,dc=coldfire" -w
secret -f /tmp/arbre_exemple.ldif -x
adding new entry "dc=coldfire"
ldapadd: update failed: dc=coldfire
ldap_add: Undefined attribute type (17)
        additional info: dn: attribute type undefined

You can see my config files lower

Note that all openldap's 'make test' was OK

If I use a migration tool:

debian:/home/cold/MigrationTools-44# ./migrate_all_online.sh
Enter the X.500 naming context you wish to import into: [dc=coldfire]
Enter the name of your LDAP server [ldap]:
Enter the manager DN: [cn=manager,dc=coldfire]: cn=Manager,dc=coldfire
Enter the credentials to bind with:
Do you wish to generate a DUAConfigProfile [yes|no]? no

ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (81)
/usr/local/bin/ldapadd: returned non-zero exit status

It is really slapd which listens to ldap port:
Netstat -l -p says:

tcp 0 0 *:ldap   *:*  LISTEN  224/slapd

So I really don't know what's the problem

Objet : ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server

Hi

When I try to do a ldapadd command, i get this message :

ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (81)

Here's the content of slapd.conf:

include         /usr/local/etc/openldap/schema/core.schema
pidfile         /usr/local/var/slapd.pid
argsfile        /usr/local/var/slapd.args
loglevel -1
database        bdb
suffix          "dc=coldfire"
rootdn          "cn=Manager,dc=coldfire" 
rootpw          secret
directory       /usr/local/var/openldap-data
index   objectClass     eq

I thought it was slapd which could not bind ldap port, but netstat -l
says 
that:

tcp        0      0 *:ldap                  *:*
LISTEN

So, if I understand fine, it seems ok, and it seems to really be slapd
which 
listens to this port as ps aux | grep slapd says

root     16255  0.0  0.6  6940 2048 ?        S    May08   0:00 slapd -4
root     16256  0.0  0.6  6940 2048 ?        S    May08   0:00 slapd -4
root     16257  0.0  0.6  6940 2048 ?        S    May08   0:00 slapd -4

I get the " ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (81) " error message
when I 
try to migrate with migrate_all_online.pl from padl.com

If I try another way, with a ldif file

Here's my arbre_coldfire.ldif:

dn: dc=coldfire
objectClass: dcobject
dc: maison
dn: ou=People, dc=coldfire
objectClass: organization
ou: People

dn: uid=root,ou=People,dc=coldfire
uid: root
cn: root
objectClass: account
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: top
objectClass: shadowAccount
userPassword: <I hide the hashed pass>.
shadowLastChange: 12178
shadowMax: 99999
shadowWarning: 7
loginShell: /bin/bash
uidNumber: 0
gidNumber: 0
homeDirectory: /root
gecos: root

and so on...
and if I type: 
ldapadd -h localhost -p 389 -D "cn=manager,dc=exemple" -w secret -
f /tmp/arbre_coldfire.ldif
I get: ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: No such attribute (16)
And if I add -x arg: ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)

Thanks to help me
