Hi,

I'm trying to make a schema of my own.

For starters, I want a homeZIP.
I've created a tim.schema and included it in slapd.conf

I did it like this:
attributetype(1.3.6.1.4.1.7165.1.1.1.1 NAME 'homeZip'
DESC 'Home Zip'
SUBSTR caseExactIA5SubstringsMatch EQUALITY caseExactIA5Match
SYNTAX 1.3.6.1.4.1.1466.115.121.1.26 SINGLE-VALUE )

OpenLdap starts just fine, but when I insert a homeZip value, I get the error:
"ldap_add: Undefined attribute type (17)
additional info: homeZip: attribute type undefined"

Any help would be appreciated.

Warm Regards,

Ahhh, that looks like the space set aside for "experimental purposes" that you are using ... I did the same thing my first time around and found that the slapd devs have it used all through the codebase for various bits and pieces, and I was tripping all over it. Your definition looks fine to me, you may want to get your own IANA number and use that to develop your schema under ... there is much less chance (i.e. 0) that you will find yourself in conflict with slapd internals or someone elses schema.
