I am following the link to configure ldap on ubuntu 10.04 server but could not.

when I try to use sudo ldapadd -x -D cn=admin,dc=don,dc=com -W -f frontend.ldif I'm getting the following error:

Enter LDAP Password: <entered 'secret' as password>
adding new entry "dc=don,dc=com"
ldap_add: Naming violation (64)
      additional info: value of single-valued naming attribute 'dc' conflicts with value present in entry

Again when I try to do the same, I'm getting the following error:

root@avy-desktop:/home/avy# sudo ldapadd -x -D cn=admin,dc=don,dc=com -W -f frontend.ldif
Enter LDAP Password:
ldap_bind: Invalid credentials (49)

Here is the backend.ldif file
