[Joseph Hoot <joe@networkpenguin.com>]

sorry, left out a few lines of my slapd.conf.  Here they are:

# Allow clients to authenticate
access to
attr=objectclass,uid,host,uidnumber,gidnumber,homedirectory,loginshell,gecos,description
        by dn="cn=Manager,dc=nowcom,dc=com" write
        by * read
