[ale] LDAP Problems (newbie)

[Nathan J. Underwood]

Ok, I'm fumbling my way through this LDAP / Samba v3 stuff for domain 
authentication, and I'm just not having a lot of luck.  I have my 
/etc/openldap/slapd.conf file setup the way that (I believe) I need it 
(per the Quick Start guide and 
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=6266), and I'm able to start 
and query the server.  The article at 
http://www.linuxjournal.com/article.php?sid=6266 is actually pretty much 
everything that I want to do, so I got excited when I found it, but it's 
not working quite like I'd hoped.  I've basically mirrored the 
slapd.conf file, and created a top.ldif file that's almost identical to 
the one listed (I've changed foo to my domain name).  When I try to use 
ldapadd to add it to the directory, I get the following error:

ldap_add: Naming violation (64)
         additional info: value of naming attribute 'dc' is not present 
in entry

I'm going to continue googling (isn't it funny how that's a verb now?), 
but if any of you have had / overcome the same problem, any pointers 
would be appreciated.
