LDIFDE import error

[andy]

I am trying to do an ldif import of a test user and I am getting the
following error. I am able to export with no problem. Below also is
a copy of my ldf file. Any ideas?

Connecting to "winad1.winad.myschool.edu"
Logging in as current user using SSPI
Importing directory from file "c:\perl\work\temp\w_staff.ldf"
Error occured during initialization
File operation failure
0 entries modified successfully.
An error has occurred in the program

Hi,

Thank you for posting.

I copied your script and saved it as TestUser.ldf and used the following
command to import the user:

ldifde -i -f testuser.ldf -s dc1

where dc1 is the name for my test domain controller.

It executed successfully without any errors.

I executed it as domain administrator.

Please check for permissions on the file and also try executing the script
from the folder where it is stored.

Hope it helps.

Thank you,
Rashmi
