LDAP-Insufficient 'add' privilege to add the entry

[jjeanj1]

Hi,
all i am writing a perl script to do a a bulk add of users from a file and load it to LDAP

$ldap = Net::LDAP->new("test.domain.com", port=>3394) or die "Can not 
connected to LDAP \n"; 
 
$mesg=$ldap->bind("uid=testuser,ou=applicationstest,o=systemresourcestest,o=hainet,dc=hainet,dc=com",password=>"secret"); 
 
$cn="$last_name $first_name"; 
#---------------------LDAP CONNECTION------------------ 
#----------------------------------------------------- 
 
$dn="uid=$e_number,ou=applicationstest,o=systemresourcestest,o=hainet,dc=hainet,dc=com"; 
 
#$dn="uid=testuser,dc=hainet,dc=com"; 
 
if($action eq "A"){ 
$result = $ldap->add($dn, 
attr => [ 
'uid'=>'$e_number', 
'cn' =>'$cn', 
'sn' => '$first_name', 
'objectclass' => ['person','organizationalPerson', 
'inetOrgPerson' ], 
 
]); 
 
$result->code && warn "error: ", $result->error; 
 
#$ldap->unbind; 
} 
 
} 
 

When i run this code i am getting an" Insufficient 'add' privilege to add"

is this an error related to my code or is it an error related to the factb that i don't have the rights to add user. I am very new to LDAP so your help would greatly be appreciated.

Well, that is not a Perl error. I would definitely say that you do not have permissions to add users to your LDAP. You may want to contact your administrator about this issue.
