Hello, we are running a server/domain and need some help regarding the same. Due to some reasons in need to update the organizationalUnit class by adding a new attribute provided below using an LDIF file. For your information I have verified the that schema is already updated with this new attribute. Here is the LDIF sample:

changeType: modify
mayContain: orgCd

dn:
changeType: modify
add: schemaUpdateNow
schemaUpdateNow: 1

I am trying to perform a sync of AD, when I ran ADSchemaAnalyzer I performed the following:

Load Target Schema = my DC:389 (all other fields empty)
Load Base Schema = my ADAM server:389 (all other fields empty)
Create LDIF file = filename.ldf (created)

RAN - LDIFDE -i -e localhost -c CN=Configuration,
DC=X #ConfigurationNamingContext -f filename.ldf

I received an error "Last token starts with '1'.

Can anyone explain this?

Thanks
