Hey guys,
Thanks for all the help, I've almost got it working now. UID is not a necessary attribute of an LDAP record, however to use Oracle Portal it is. I'm trying to move from a Oracles 902 ldap directory to a 10g directory and this is my final step.

My only problem now is I have 4 records with cn on the last line of the record and for some reason its not find it in the search. i.e.

cn=HELPDESK,cn=users,dc=myco,dc=com
orclactivestartdate: 20031202043257Z
objectclass: top
objectclass: person
objectclass: inetOrgPerson
objectclass: organizationalPerson
objectclass: orclUser
objectclass: orclUserV2
o: MyOrg
orcldefaultprofilegroup: cn=user_grp,cn=portal_groups,cn=groups,dc=myco,dc=com
givenname: Joe
sn: Schmo
telephonenumber: 800-999-9999
userpassword: {MD4}1a4QEWWP+nCZ19uAy9w==
mail: joe_blow@myco.com
cn: HELPDESK
Any ideas? Thanks again Matt
