LDIF entries are seperated by one and only one new line. slapadd is very picky about that whereas ldapadd is more sloppy (ldapadd also accepts comments in the ldif file whereas slapadd doesn't). In other words it is often not possible to dump a ldapsearch output into slapadd. It seems that linux distributions add more patches to OpenLDAP than OpenBSD. -- :wq Claudio
