Sounds like tcp_wrappers. Check hosts.allow. Run slapd with the "-d" switch 
for more info. Add "slapd" allow lines to hosts.allow.

Feature request: slapd doesn't seem to honor tcp_wrappers "spawn" rules, or 
to log denials the way I've come to expect from the tcpd binary. This makes 
tracking down tcp_wrappers problems more difficult. Does anybody know why 
slapd behaves this way?
