[389-users] using uid rather then cn in the binddn

[Dumbo Q]

Thanks.  I tried that, but now it tells me
ldapmodify: Object class violation (65)
        additional info: missing attribute "cn" required by object class "inetOrgPerson"

Being that the entry has a 'cn', I guess this means that somewhere I have it setup where dn requires the cn to be in it ???  Anythoughts

You need to perform a "modrdn" operation instead of a regular modify.  Try the above, but change your "changetype" to "modrdn".  You may also find that you don't want to delete the old RDN from the entry, particularly if that is the only "cn" value present in your entry.  Doing so would cause an objectclass violation since "cn" is likely required for the objectclass you are using.
