RE: Can't reach LDAP server on alternate port?

["Steve Collins" <scollins@apexvoice.com>]

Hi Stig,
	thanks for the response. I had been starting slapd with

/usr/local/libexec/slapd -h ldap://127.0.0.1:9009/  ldaps:///  ldapi:///

(exactly like the man page says).  That seemed suspicious; so I changed it
to

/usr/local/libexec/slapd -h ldap://ziggy:9009/  ldaps:///  ldapi:///


That worked better, I can now contact that port from other machines, thanks.

Steve
