Description Björn Baumbach 2014-02-13 12:37:29 UTC 
ldbedit can not create new or edit empty databases.

 ldbedit -H test.ldb
 no matching records - cannot edit

Workaround:
Creating a new database via ldbadd -H testldb ...
and then ldbedit this new database.

This is somehow related to https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8028.

(In reply to Matthias Dieter Wallnöfer from comment #1)
I tend to agree, this is not a bug but a feature.  Perhaps we need a better message, but for now I'm closing this. 

Sorry!
