I have the following entry in LDAP directory:
dn: ou=Users,dc=itau,dc=co
objectClass: organizationalUnit
ou: Users
Unfortunately, I forgot to add the gid attribute. Because of this, I had created the following LDIF file called "modify.ldif":
dn: ou=Users,dc=itau,dc=co
changetype: modify
add: gid
gid: 20000
But when I run the command
ldapmodify -x -D "cn=admin,dc=itau,dc=co" -w <PASSWORD> -H ldap:// -f modify.ldif
I get the error:
ldap_modify: Undefined attribute type (17)
additional info: gid: attribute type undefined
It's important to say that I had checked for blank spaces at the end of each line, but this error didn't desappear.
Why I'm getting this error?.
Thank you.

I'm trying to set ACL for Manager user by I understand where is my syntax error.
Is it correct to modify the "olcDatabase={2}hdb" file??
My Terminal command:
ldapmodify -a -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=gruppo6,dc=labreti,dc=it" -w root -H ldap:// -f acl.ldif
And this is the error:

Thanks for every help guys
There are 2 issues :
You are trying to modify olcDatabase={2}hdb using the wrong dn in acl.ldif, this entry should be in the subtree of cn=config. You can grab the target olcDatabase using this command :
slapcat -n 0 -a olcDatabase=hdb
# Output
dn: olcDatabase={2}hdb,cn=config
...
Since you are modifying an existing entry, you don't need the -a flag (ldapadd) in ldapmodify command :
ldapmodify -x -D "cn=Manager,dc=gruppo6,dc=labreti,dc=it" -w root -H ldap:// -f acl.ldif
If your ldap manager precisely cannot modify this config entry due to insufficient permissions (reading from this directive to * by dn="cn=Manager,dc=gruppo6,dc=labreti,dc=it" manage), you can still use external binding (unix user) to perform that kind of operation :
ldapmodify -Y EXTERNAL -H ldapi:/// -f acl.ldif
I'm having problems with finding a specific entry in LDAP tree, given a filter defined on a custom attribute.
I.e. (search by samaccountname=jpa)
ldapsearch -x -D "CN=admin,DC=my,DC=com" -w admin -H ldap://localhost:10389 -b "ou=My Users,dc=my,dc=com" -s sub "samaccountname=jpa" does not work (returns no result)
whereas (search sn=jpa):
ldapsearch -x -D "CN=admin,DC=my,DC=com" -w admin -H ldap://localhost:10389 -b "ou=My Users,dc=my,dc=com" -s sub "sn=jpa" works
even (check for existence of samaccountname):
ldapsearch -x -D "CN=admin,DC=my,DC=com" -w admin -H ldap://localhost:10389 -b "ou=My Users,dc=my,dc=com" -s sub "samaccountname=*" works
Any ideas what can be wrong here? My intention is to find the given user using sub (samaccountname=jpa) filter
My config is (using osixia/openldap docker image):
schema:
attributetype ( 1.2.840.113556.1.4.221 NAME 'sAMAccountName'
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.15
SINGLE-VALUE
USAGE userApplications )
objectclass ( 2.5.6.30 NAME 'extendedUser'
SUP person
STRUCTURAL
MUST ( sAMAccountName ) )
ACL's:
dn: olcDatabase={1}mdb,cn=config
changetype: modify
delete: olcAccess
-
add: olcAccess
olcAccess: to * by * read
LDIF:
DN: OU=My Users,DC=my,DC=com

objectClass: organizationalUnit

You need to define an EQUALITY on your attribute. LDAP doesn't currently know how to perform the search on that attribute.

OpenLDAP Schema Specification
I'm trying to add a user to the "wheel" group and I keep getting this error message (removed dc entries to mask my company:
[root#~]# ldapmodify -x -W -D "cn=Manager,dc=XXX,dc=XXX" -f usergroupadd.ldif
Enter LDAP Password:
modifying entry "cn=wheel,ou=groups,dc=XXX,dc=XXX"
ldap_modify: No such object (32)
matched DN: dc=XXX,dc=XXX
Now I'm sure many will wonder if the 'wheel' group even exists, and that answer is yes. Adjusted user names for security purposes.
[root#~]# getent group| grep wheel
wheel:x:10:USER1,USER2,USER3,USER4,USER5,USER6
[root#~]#
And lastly my ldif file with the usergroup add appears to be correct:
[root#~]# cat usergroupadd.ldif
dn: cn=wheel,ou=groups,dc=XXX,dc=XXX
changetype: modify
add: memberuid
memberuid: USER7
So my question is, what is causing the No such object (32) error?
Thanks,
I'm trying to add 'mail' attribute to users on my openldap server but somehow it fails.
I tried using ldapmodify but I get this:
ldap_modify: Object class violation (65)
additional info: attribute 'mail' not allowed
Here's how my schema looks like:
# LDIF Export for ou=users,dc=mydomain,dc=com
# Server: (ldap.mydomain.com)
# Search Scope: sub
# Search Filter: (objectClass=*)
# Total Entries: 63
version: 1
# Entry 1: ou=users,dc=mydomain,dc=com
dn: ou=users,dc=mydomain,dc=com
objectclass: organizationalUnit
objectclass: top
ou: users
# Entry 2: uid=tom.hanks,ou=users,dc=mydomain,dc=com
dn: uid=tom.hanks,ou=users,dc=mydomain,dc=com
cn: tom.hanks
description: User account
gecos: tom.hanks
gidnumber: 100
homedirectory: /home/tom.hanks
loginshell: /bin/bash
objectclass: account
objectclass: posixAccount
uid: tom.hanks
uidnumber: 1005
userpassword: blahblah
Include objectclass: iNetOrgPerson to add the mail attribute.
In order to give the user the Attribute mail you first have to add the mail attribute to the user's olcObjectClasses.
This can be done by a modification via an ldif like this:
dn: cn={12345}someName,cn=schema,cn=config
changetype: modify
delete: olcObjectClasses
olcObjectClasses: {1}
-
add: olcObjectClasses
olcObjectClasses: {1}( 1.3.6.1.4.1.12344556.1.1.1 NAME 'yourObjectClassEGAccount' DESC 'some description' SUP inetOrgPerson STRUCTURAL MUST ( requiredparam1 $ requiredParam2 $ reqParam3 ) MAY ( optionalParam1 $ optionalParam2 ) ) )
-
See the documentation for ldapmodify for details: Oracle ldapmodify Doc
The modification is then given to ldap via the following command (command line):
sudo ldapmodify -f filename.ldif
make sure to read the documentation on whether you need further parameters like eg. -h for hostname or -Y for a proxyDN: lmodify Doc
I'm trying to setup an LDIF file which shall add a new attribute value to an existing node. The attribute is a mandatory attribute of custom objectclass.
Here is the contents of the LDIF file 'add.ldif':
dn: cn=hna,cn=Users,DC=lan,DC=test,DC=de
changetype: modify
add: objectclass
objectclass: MyCustomObjectClass
-
add: myCustomAttribute
myCustomAttribute: someValue
-
Problem: when I try add that to the LDAP server using
ldapmodify -h ... -D ... -w ... -x -f add.ldif
I get the error message
ldap_modify: Objectclass violation (65)
additional info: 00002014: objectclass_attrs: attribute 'myCustomAttribute'
on entry 'cn=hna,cn=Users,DC=lan,DC=test,DC=de' does not exist in the
specified objectclasses
When I leave out the 'add' of 'myCustomAtribute' then of course then I get:
ldap_modify: Objectclass violation (65)
additional info: 00002014: objectclass_attrs: at least one mandatory attribute
('myCustomAttribute') on entry 'cn=hna,cn=Users,DC=lan,DC=test,DC=de'
wasn't specified!
Any idea what is wrong with my approach?
ldapmodify is the one from OpenLDAP; the server is a Samba V4 LDAP.
This should work:
dn: cn=hna,cn=Users,DC=lan,DC=test,DC=de
changetype: modify
add: objectclass
objectclass: MyCustomObjectClass
add: myCustomAttribute
myCustomAttribute: someValue
There MUST be an empty line after the last line.
The "-" is only needed if you want to perform separate modify operations and have them be atomic. (ie all work or all fail).
As adding the objectclass requires MUST attributes must happen in the same modification.
By the way I have noticed that some ldapmodify programs do not handle these properly.
