Re: What does "ldap_add: No such object" mean?

["Chris van der Merwe" <warpspasm@hotmail.com>]

Well I try to be clever here, but failed miserably:

I try this file:

dn: cn=United States
objectclass: country
cn: United States

But when I tried:

ldapadd -f /tmp/newcountry -h localhost -p 389

I got the same message, ldap_add: No such object
I admit I was guessing a bit on the syntax!

Any ideas?
