Check the admin server access and error logs /opt/fedora-ds/admin-serv/logs

Check the admin server access and error logs?

Not exactly.  It's really very simple - the admin server converts the 
path /admin-serv/Tasks/Name into an ldap entry - it first looks for the 
admin server entry cn=admin-serv-ldap, then looks for cn=Name,cn=Tasks 
under that entry.
