So..
if I create a top2.ldif file which looks like:
dn: ou=Users,dc=usf,dc=edu
objectClass: organizationalUnit
objectClass: top
ou: Users
dn: ou=Groups,dc=usf,dc=edu
objectClass: organizationalUnit
objectClass: top
ou: Groups
Then I execute:
ldapadd -x -D "cn=admin,dc=usf,dc=edu" -w admin -f top2.ldif
I get the HAPPY result of:
adding new entry "ou=Users,dc=usf,dc=edu"
adding new entry "ou=Groups,dc=usf,dc=edu"
WOOHOO!
BUT!!! If I try and cat the schema to a file, I get an empty
out.ldif file and this error:
sudo slapcat -b dc=usf,dc=edu -l out.ldif
bdb_monitor_db_open: monitoring disabled; configure monitor database to enable
I think that if I get this file created, then I can use Webmin to
administer the rest of the changes.
Any ideas how I can create the LDIF file?
