Hi All,

I am testing OL 2.3.7 on a Debian Sarge box.
I would like to implement the password policy overlay.

When I try to create a dn that would hold the password policy:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ ldapmodify -vv -x -W -D
"uid=stran,ou=people,dc=example,dc=com" -H ldap://localhost -f
passwd_cn.ldif ldap_initialize( ldap://localhost ) Enter LDAP Password: replace cn:
        password
replace objectClass:
        organizationalRole
        pwdPolicy
replace pwdattribute:
        userpassword
modifying entry "cn=password,ou=Policies,dc=example,dc=com"
modify complete
ldap_modify: Invalid syntax (21)
        additional info: pwdattribute: value #0 invalid per syntax

I don't understand why I get that error message.

It looks like slapd's objectIdentifierMatch rule doesn't understand 
descriptions (though it is supposed to). You'll have to use the numeric OID 
instead, until that is fixed.
