Take a look in tests/test-db/ldapsearch.out.  If there's a message in
front of there about 'PRNG not seeded...' then you need to create a
~/.rnd file, set up an Entropy Gathering Daemon, or if your system
has /dev/urandom or /dev/random and it's not being used for some
reason sort that out.

The www.openssl.org page is useful for this; the command to generate it
is:
	openssl rand -out ~/.rnd -rand /etc/motd:/proc/1 256

The most important arg is the -rand one, which should be a number of
colon-separated paths to files that have unpredicatable values.  
This is the least desireable solution, vs. having a real daemon or
device to give you random information, but it will allow you to test
if this is indeed the problem.
