Yes, ou=sv.powerset.com,o=netscaperoot exists. Underneath it are other existing 1.04 servers for that administration domain. The script isn't creating cn=aa0-002-6-v2.u.powerset.com,ou=sv.powerset.com,o=NetscapeRoot (or anything below that) before trying to create the entry I listed below. -richard -----Original Message----- From: fedora-directory-users-bounces at redhat.com [mailto:fedora-directory-users-bounces at redhat.com] On Behalf Of Rich Megginson Sent: Wednesday, January 30, 2008 2:27 PM To: General discussion list for the Fedora Directory server project.

Look at 10dsdata.ldif.tmpl and you'll see what we're talking about. It looks like this script and template were never tested in a clean build environment. I'm ok correcting that template file as long as I'm putting the right information in. Should I use the existing 1.04 entries as a guideline? > Well, yes, but I'm curious - if cn=Fedora Directory Server, cn=Server Group, cn=aa0-002-6-v2.u.powerset.com, ou=sv.powerset.com, o=NetscapeRoot is not there, then what is under o=NetscapeRoot? Is ou=sv.powerset.com, o=NetscapeRoot? Is cn=aa0-002-6-v2.u.powerset.com, ou=sv.powerset.com, o=NetscapeRoot? > -richard >
