Unauthenticated bind (DN with no password) disallowed


I am trying to configure openldap on OEL 5.7 and I am getting this error:

ldapadd -a -X -w -D 'cn=ldapadmin,dc=oraia,dc=com' -f initialize_ldap.ldif

ldap_bind: DSA is unwilling to perform ldap_bind: additional info: unauthenticated bind (DN with no password) disallowed

Here is my .ldif file

dn: dc=oraia,dc=com
objectclass: dcObject
objectclass: organization
o: Oraia LDAP Server for Net Service Names
dc: oraia

dn: cn=ldapadmin,dc=oraia,dc=com
objectclass: organizationalRole
cn: ldapadmin

And here is my slapd.conf file

# See slapd.conf(5) for details on configuration options.
# This file should NOT be world readable.
#
include         /etc/openldap/schema/core.schema

directory       /var/lib/ldap

# Indices to maintain for this database
index objectClass                       eq,pres
index ou,cn,mail,surname,givenname      eq,pres,sub

index uid,memberUid                     eq,pres,sub
index nisMapName,nisMapEntry            eq,pres,sub

I have tried all the rootpw solutions on internet but it didn't work throw with same error as mentioned.


Solution

  • Try ldapadd -a -x -w secret -D 'cn=ldapadmin,dc=oraia,dc=com' -f initialize_ldap.ldif. -X needs an option that you don't want, and you need to provide the password to -w. Note that secret comes from your slapd.conf; if you changed it while posting use the real one.
