title: openldap "no global superior knowledge"
body: <p>When I:</p>
  <pre><code>ldapadd -f pop01.ldif -x -D &quot;cn=Manager,dc=ldap,dc=beonegroup,dc=be&quot; -w 1234
  </code></pre>
  <p>I get:</p>
  <pre><code>adding new entry &quot;dc=ldap,dc=beonegroup,dc=org&quot;
  ldapadd: Server is unwilling to perform (53)
          additional info: no global superior knowledge
  </code></pre>
  <p>Here is my slapd.conf:</p>
  <pre><code>database    bdb
  suffix      &quot;dc=ldap,dc=beonegroup,dc=be&quot;
  rootdn      &quot;cn=Manager,dc=ldap,dc=beonegroup,dc=be&quot;
  rootpw          1234
  directory   /var/lib/ldap/beoneDirectory
  index objectClass                       eq,pres
  index ou,cn,mail,surname,givenname      eq,pres,sub
  index uidNumber,gidNumber,loginShell    eq,pres
  index uid,memberUid                     eq,pres,sub
  index nisMapName,nisMapEntry            eq,pres,sub
  </code></pre>

  <p>I know this is a slapd.conf related issue, openldap doesn't know where to insert my entries but I don't really see how to specify it</p>
