If this is too newbie - please ignore (I'm used to openldap and I'm struggling) commands like ldapsearch only seem to work if my cwd is /opt/fedora-ds/shared/bin # cd ~ [root at lin-workstation ~]# ldapsearch ldapsearch: error while loading shared libraries: libldap50.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory anyway, I can cd /opt/fedora-ds/shared/bin but it's a PITA the bigger problem, I wanted to simple bind and cannot do that... # ldapsearch -v -b "ou=people,dc=azapple,dc=com" "(objectclass=*)" gives me everyone in the container (I am obviously going to have to set up ACL's) # ldapsearch -v -b "ou=people,dc=azapple,dc=com" \ -D "cn=Directory Manager,dc=azapple,dc=com" -w - \ "(objectclass=*)" and # ldapsearch -v -b "ou=people,dc=azapple,dc=com" \ -D "cn=admin,dc=azapple,dc=com" -w - \ "(objectclass=*)" both fail with ldapsearch: started Sat Dec 3 13:32:13 2005 ldap_init( localhost, 389 ) ldap_simple_bind: No such object ldap_simple_bind: matched: dc=azapple,dc=com I know it must be something obvious that I am missing but I have tried and tried with no success - is simple bind not permitted by default?
