Graham,
sorry for contacting you directly, but I have a documentation problem with Net::LDAP:
I wrote a CGI script to edit LDAP directory entries. The script works fine for modifying attributes (add/modify/delete), but it fails for modifying entries. When I try to add a new entry using the $entry->update($ldap) method, I get the error "newrdn: attribute type undefined".
For reasons of uniqueness, I try to batch all changes into an Net::LDAP::Entry object, but I'm unsure how to do it correctly. I set up the entry like this:
$entry = Net::LDAP::Entry->new(); $entry->changetype('add'); $entry->dn($dn1);
$entry->add('newrdn' => $dn2);
Here you're adding the "newrdn" attribute with a value of "cn=Joe Test". But your schema does not include such an attribute type. Hence the "newrdn: attribute type undefined" error.
$dn1 would be "dc=people,dc=klinik,dc=uni-regensburg,dc=de" while $dn2 would be
If you want to create an entry with a DN of "cn=Joe Test,dc=people,dc=klinik,dc=uni-regensburg,dc=de" then use
$entry->dn("cn=Joe Test,dc=people,dc=klinik,dc=uni-regensburg,dc=de").
