Try specifying your organization's base DN on the command line, like

1.) ldapsearch -b 'o=your_o, c=your_c' 'objectclass=*'

The DN should be the same you you specified in slapd.conf...

I had a lot of trouble with this (:

Hi,

I have compiled and installed the OpenLDAP on my RedHat Linux 5.2 Box.
Using the Perl Migration Tools utility, I have migrated all users by
running:-

1.) migrate_passwd.pl  /etc/passwd passwd.ldif
2.) ldif2ldbm -i passwd.ldif

After this I start slapd and I can see it running okay with "ps".

But when I use

1.) ldapsearch 'objectclass=*'

I get "ldap_search: No such object".

Any suggestions??

Thanks in advance.
