[CentOS] ldif invalid per syntax

Sat Oct 9 02:52:54 UTC 2010
Tim Dunphy <bluethundr at gmail.com>

I just recopied openLDAP.schema as sudoers.schema and added it to slapd.conf


[bluethundr at bluethundr-desktop:~/txt/ldif ] $:ldapadd -h ldap -a -W -x
-D "cn=Manager,dc=summitnjhome,dc=com" -f
/home/bluethundr/txt/sudoers2.ldif
Enter LDAP Password:
adding new entry "cn=defaults,ou=sudoers,ou=Services,dc=summitnjhome,dc=com"

adding new entry "cn=root,ou=sudoers,ou=Services,dc=summitnjhome,dc=com"

adding new entry "cn=%wheel,ou=sudoers,ou=Services,dc=summitnjhome,dc=com"

adding new entry "cn=%summitnjops,ou=sudoers,ou=Services,dc=summitnjhome,dc=com"


MAJOR WIN and THANKS to scott !!!
