Openldap 2.1.4, Berkeley BDB 4.0.14. Made a contact cn=O'Flaherty Sue,ou=contacts,dc=billy,dc=demon,dc=nl with GQ. objectClass=top,objectClass=person, cn=O'Flaherty Sue, sn=O'Flaherty and deleted her o.k. with command-line 'ldapdelete'. Tried to add one with the same DN, but this time cn=O\\\'Flaherty Sue and got an "invalid dn" from slapd -d 256. So how on earth that one was added in the first place, I don't know. Tried modifying it different ways and nothing worked. The only other alternative I can think of, is dumping the database to an ldif and physically editing out O\\\'Flaherty Sue, then re-slapadd-ing. Because you'll get the same error from GQ if you try that, since all it's doing is giving an ldapdelete command. But that seems an awful hassle for one record. I have the same sort problem with a contact cn Solkesz%2C J.H., but he can stay like that, for all I care. Try to pretend she never existed? Best, Tony -- Tony Earnshaw The usefulness of RTFM is vastly overrated. e-post: tonni@billy.demon.nl www: http://www.billy.demon.nl gpg public key: http://www.billy.demon.nl/tonni.armor Telefoon: (+31) (0)172 530428 Mobiel: (+31) (0)6 51153356 GPG Fingerprint = 3924 6BF8 A755 DE1A 4AD6 FA2B F7D7 6051 3BE7 B981 3BE7B981
