I have the following in my OpenLDAP configuration. Using the latest version OpenLDAP on Centos 5.3. Installed using yum.

From my /etc/openldap/slapd.conf

database        bdb
suffix          "dc=company,dc=com"
rootdn          "cn=Manager,dc=company,dc=com"

From my /etc/openldap/ldap.conf

BASE dc=company,dc=com

I have successfully added an entry with ldapadd and retrieved it with ldapsearch from a local bash shell on the box.

Now I am trying to get a Graphical Editor to connect to this server remotely so I can enter people from my laptop. But I am having no luck. I tried JXplorer, and it connects with Anonymous bind without me having to specify a BaseDN but I can't edit anything that way.

If I try and give it a user name and password, using Manager and my rootpw I have in clear text just for testing, every GUI Client on my remote laptop complains about my BaseDN not being the correct format when I enter dc=company,dc=com and I tried cn=Manager,dc=company,dc=com.

Error opening connection:
[LDAP: error code 34 - invalid DN]

I have tried multiple clients and all of them connect as anonymous, none let me connect authenticated where I can actually create or edit anything.

I am using Manager as my username and the password from rootpw, is that correct?
