Re: adding organizationalUnit

[Michael E. <men...@ka...>]

No, I'm not sure. :-)
I guess my misunderstanding is that add() requests a dn.   What dn do=20
you enter for a top-level or mid-level organizationalUnit?

If have the following single entry setup in my OpenLDAP directory:

dn: o=3Dmycompany.com
objectclass: top
objectclass: organization
o: mycompany.com


and then want to add from python-ldap this organizationUnit:

dn: ou=3DPeople,o=3Dmycompany.com
objectclass: top
objectclass: organizationalunit
ou: People


try:
	bind_dn=3D"cn=3DDirectory Manager,o=3Dmycompany.com"
	password =3D "xxxxxxxxx"
	l =3D LDAPWrapper(bind_dn,password)
	dnToAddTo =3D "o=3Dmycompany.com"
	modlist =3D []
	modlist.append(('dn','ou=3DPeople,o=3Dmycompany.com'))
	modlist.append(('objectclass',['top','organizationalunit']))
	modlist.append(('ou','People'))
	l.add(dnToAddTo, modlist)
	l.close()
except ldap.LDAPError, e:
	print e

I get this error:
{'info': 'dn: attribute type undefined', 'desc': 'Undefined attribute=20
type'}

Thanks
Michael
