[Classic-discuss] user login through ldap

[Rolf Deenen]

Hello Mikael,

Thanks very much for the effort. Last evening i have compared your  config with
mine. They were identical. But i did notice that core.schema is already in the
configuration, it's just a little above the other schema definitions. That's one
thing i could cross out. So the problem was not the slapd.conf file.

Just tinkering along with it, it seems I have found the problem. I had already
created an object with the inetorgperson objectclass. I wanted to add to this
object the posixaccount objectclass. Now I have found out this is not possible.
I was in the assumption one could just add objectclasses as one saw fit. It
seems however that the inetorgperson and the posixaccount objectclass can not
both be used on the same object.
