I read in some post that i have to add the in the code the ou=users

ldapsearch -xLLL -D "cn=admin,ou=users,dc=geobolivia,dc=gob,dc=bo" -W > dump-geobolivia.ldif

and when I do that, the error that I have is the

ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49) 

and the log is

Dec 19 18:58:43 geobolivia slapd[3045]: conn=1080 fd=17 ACCEPT from IP=127.0.0.1:57515 (IP=127.0.0.1:389)

I'm using bind9 as DNS server and I think that's the problem but I don't know how to solve that.

Answer 1

Error 32 usually means, the referenced object does not exist. I.e. You entered a bad DN value for something that needed a correct DN value.

Error 49, is the generic login failed, and each LDAP server adds subcodes or other error messages unique to itself, and you get the fun of understanding those cases.

So your DN for Admin is likely incorrect.
