Adding a Net::LDAP::Entry object to a directory.

[Shiva Persaud-D. <sh...@us...>]

Hi,

I just started using the perl-ldap modules. I'm trying to add an entry to a
directory and I create it as follows:

$spdentry = Net::LDAP::Entry->new;

And I try to add it as follows:

$spdentry->dn("cn=shiva");

$spdentry->add(
   'entry' => '777',
   'openeddate' => 'Aug 5'
);
$mesg = $ldap->add($spdentry);
LDAPerror("Adding", $mesg);

I get the following output:
Adding
Return code: 32 Message: LDAP_NO_SUCH_OBJECT :The server cannot find an
object specified in the request
MessageID: 2    DN:

How do I specify what object type I would like to add this entry as? Any
suggestions would be useful.




Thanks,
