If you apply latest LDAPv2 patch 108993 (back ported patch of Solaris9

Thanks for the clue. Although showrev suggested 108993-49 was installed,
attempting to reinstall that patch failed because of missing dependant
packages (ppp etc) So perhaps it wasn't installed properly? I reapplied the
patch using patchadd -u...

But ldapclient *still* didn't take the same args as Solaris 9's. Grr. So I
stole the ldap_client_file from a working Solaris 9 box and that seems to
have done the trick!

Have you tried a profile?

ldapclient -P profilename 192.168.20.10

The profile I use works across my solaris 8, 9, & 10
boxes. Plus, when you make a change to the profile, it
will propogate across your network.

What schema is required for this profile, and how does ldapclient locate the
profile entry just given the address of the server?

Cheers,

Chris
