RE: Adding a root entry

["Jagannatha Reddy" <jagan@datamain.com>]

Suppose -

    your LDAP server is running on ldap.yourcompany.com at port 389,

    your rootDN is "cn=root, dc=yourCompany, dc=com" with password secret &

    your BaseDN is dc=yourCompany, dc=com

 

To add organization infopulse, do the following:

 

ldapadd -h ldap.yourcompany.com -p 389 -D "cn=root, dc=yourCompany, dc=com" -w secret << EOR
dn: o=infopulse, dc=yourCompany, dc=com

objectclass: organization
o: infopulse

EOR

 

which results in the following message with entry added:
    adding new entry o=Finance, dc=datamain, dc=com
