[Freeipa-users] Unable to import OpenLDAP users/groups with migrate-ds

[Cal Sawyer]

Hi

Very new to IPA and setting up a proof of concept system that i hope 
will replace my existing OpenLDAP 2.3 (no SASL) setup.  I'm trying to 
import People, Group ou's into IPA using "ipa migrate-ds".  The IPA and 
existing LDAP directories have different BaseDNs (eg ipadomain.local on 
IPA, ldapdomain.local on LDAP 2.3) as i want to ideally construct a 
completely new directory that we will then switch our clients over to.

ipa migrate-ds --schema=RFC2307 
--user-container="dc=ldapdomain,dc=local" ldap://1.2.3.4:389

whatever i try (w or w/o --schema=RFC2307) , the response is the same:

     ipa: ERROR: Insufficient access:  Invalid credentials

or with a verbose flag:

     ipa: INFO: Forwarding 'migrate_ds' to server 
u'https://ipa.ipadomain.local/ipa/session/xml'
     ipa: ERROR: Insufficient access:  Invalid credentials

manager naturally exists in ldapdomain.local and i've definitely 
supplied the correct password (we use the same creds to manage LDAP 
using phpldapadmin)

Hoping that someone has some experience with this and can point me in 
the right direction?

thanks
