I upgraded from 5.0.x some time ago to my current version(6.0.1_GA_1816.UBUNTU8_64 FOSS).
I am currently following the info at
Adding ldap indices 6.0 - Zimbra :: Wiki
I am attempting to add Samba/POSIX to my zimbra install. I was able to convert my samba.schema to ldif and get it installed and get the ldap up. I had issues with the stock nis.ldif not loading, so I converted the nis.schema in that directory using the same instructions for the samba.schema => ldif.
My LDAP now starts fine.
When I issue the "ldapmodify -x -H ldapi:/// -D cn=config -W" shown in the documentation, I am immediately prompted for my ldap password. I enter it and then it just sits there, seemingly forever.
Anyone have any ideas?
