Hey folks,
I've been spending quite a few days now trying to track down a problem
I'm having trying to add a particular entry to an Active Directory DIT
and the returned messages and internet searches have not been very
profitable yet.
I've narrowed my problem down to a simple test case. I'm using an
OpenLDAP client to do the entry add since that's what I'm most
familiar with and it usually works without any more than the usual
trouble. Here's my test case. I have an LDIF file, smw.ldif, with
the following contents.
dn: cn=smw-test-adv64c.slab03ad.com,ou=KnownHosts,dc=slab03ad,dc=com
cn: smw-test-adv64c.slab03ad.com
objectclass: computer
objectclass: msSFU30IpHost
I use the OpenLDAP client command, which has alwasy worked in the past
so I do not suspect it:
ldapadd -Y GSSAPI -Hldap://slab03s.slab03ad.com:389/ -f smw.ldif
Great, no problems so far. Unfortunately, when run, I get this
response.
ldap_add: Server is unwilling to perform (53)
additional info: 00002040: SvcErr: DSID-030508F7, problem
5003 (WILL_NOT_PERFORM), data 0
I can see that 00002040 is "The specified method is not sup****ted."
which helps as much as a fish in a kite factory. I can't find any
meaning in the DSID value.
This test case is simplified from a far more complex line of
production code (which works against an OpenLDAP DIT, given the
appropriate attribute name substitutions). The error does not obtain
if I do not add the msSFU30IpHost auxiliary class: the entry is
created successfully if I just remove that line from the LDIF.
My Active Directory server is a Windows Server 2003 with SFU
installed, pretty much out of the box.
I'm a little new to the Active Directory world. Can anyone give me
some pointers on where best to look next for a solution to this
problem?
