Fedora directory users - Jun 2005 - users not showing up in directory listing

Hi,

I wonder if anyone else has seen this who might have a clue why it happens: 
I have users in my directory that will show up if I do a search on the 
directory, either in the console or from a command line or whatever, but when 
I open the console, double click my directory to open it, click on the 
"directory" tab, and navigate to "People" on the left, there
are some people
who don''t show up on the right. I can''t figure out why that
would be, because
all of my entries are automatically generated from a script. They''re
all
identical. 

clues? 

thanks,
brian.

What is the command you are using to do the search from the command line?
Who are you logged into the console as?  The same bind DN you used to do 
the command line search?  Are you using the same base DN and search 
filter?  You can look at the access log to see what search the console 
is doing.

I''m logged into the console as admin, and it shows up in a search
*within the
console*, but then it doesn''t show up in the "People"
listing.

When I do a search in the console, I''m not specifying a base. 

When I search from the command line, I''m doing so anonymously, using
the
openldap tools. 

ldapsearch -h ldap1 -x ''(uid=ajonesy)''   <-- this command
returns data fine.

The base is specified in my ldap.conf file as the root of my tree (as opposed 
to one level down in "People"). My tree only has People and Group
right now.

Look in the access log to find the search that the console is performing
when the users do not show up. Then run that search from the command line.
That might reveal the difference. I suspect the console might be doing VLV
searches, but there shouldn''t be any difference in the set of entries 
returned.
