Why am I getting a Ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49) when adding a schema to ldap?

  • 772

My first time trying to marry LDAP as a backend to Samba. I'm following the instructions at: this site and I'm stumbling when I get to the part 5 with the following error: "ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)" Googling has pointed me towards the slapd.conf file but I don't have one in the /etc/ldap directory or anywhere on disk despite having installed ldap twice and running a dpkg-reconfigure twice. Has the configuration file for slapd been changed recently?

ubuntu openldap configuration

    LDAP 49 is basically failed to connect for credential reasons. Could be a bad DN. Could be a bad password. Could be a locked account, and so on.
