Looking through this chapter today and ran across the following inconsistency under the section NT4 Migration Using LDAP Backend.
Step 3 says "3. Create a file called preload.LDIF as shown in Example 8.1. Edit the contents so that the domain name and SID are correct for the site being installed." Then step 4 says "4. Preload the LDAP database so it is ready to receive the information from the NT4 PDC. This pre-loads the LDAP directory with the top-level information, as well as the top level containers for user, group, computer, and domain account data. Execute the instruction shown here: root# slapadd -v -l preload.LDIF added: "dc=abmas,dc=biz" (00000001) added: "cn=Manager,dc=abmas,dc=biz" (00000002) added: "ou=People,dc=abmas,dc=biz" (00000003) added: "ou=Computers,dc=abmas,dc=biz" (00000004) added: "ou=Groups,dc=abmas,dc=biz" (00000005) added: "ou=Idmap,dc=abmas,dc=biz" (00000006) added: "sambaDomainName=MEGANET,dc=abmas,dc=biz" (000000" The Problem: Example 8.1 does not include information for "ou=Computers,dc=abmas,dc=biz" and "cn=Manager,dc=abmas,dc=biz". I guess something like the following should be added to the Example 8.1 ldif dn: ou=Computers,dc=abmas,dc=biz objectClass: top objectClass: organizationalUnit ou: Computers Also, since "cn=Manager,dc=abmas,dc=biz" is the rootbinddn used in Chapter 6's example, I don't think it would need to be in the directory anyway but that could something I just don't understand yet concerning LDAP.
