[SunHELP] ldapclient profile problems...

[sunhelp at sunhelp.org]

Argh!

Okay.  This is really starting to bug me now.  I've gone through the Sun docs, more Sun docs, this list archive, and more than a few scattered readme files trying to get this to work.

I'm running the 07/01 Solaris 8, with iPlanet Directory Server 5.0.

I have the tree set up exactly like it shows in the sun docs.  I've got the nisDomainObject as part of the base DN object.  I've changed the ACIs.  I've changed everything I could find to change that I've read about in any of those documents, and the ldapclient still fails.

On top of that, I know that it's probably something simple that I missed, which is even worse. :)

Anyway, here's the output of the ldap -v -P default <IP> command:

I'm not sure how it's getting the baseDN "nisdomain=draggoo.com,dc=draggoo,dc=com" --- it's not that way (that I can find, anyway) in the directory tree.  However, after it finds that, from the ldap access logs, it looks for the profile under  base="ou=profile,nisdomain=draggoo.com,dc=draggoo,dc=com", which it's not finding since "nisdomain=draggoo.com" isn't part of the tree.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
