The slapd warning is likely due to your system supporting IPv6
but not configured for IPv6.  In general, this can be ignored.
Note that server did initialize one listener.

Try specifying "-h localhost" (while running the ldap command
on the same host as the slapd is running on).

I also suggest you post software use questions to the software
mailing list, http://www.openldap.org/lists/
