Problems Connecting to The LDAP server
Help!,
I am new at this so bare with me. I have set up (I think) all of the file
correctly but when I try to add an entry to the server I get the following
message:
# ldapadd -D "cn=Manager, dc=localserver, dc=com" -W -U Manager < manager
Enter LDAP Password:
Error->ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Can't contact LDAP server
The server is running and I know I have typed the right password. Here is my
slapd.conf file:
# $OpenLDAP: pkg/ldap/servers/slapd/slapd.conf,v 1.8.8.4 2000/08/26 17:06:18

# See slapd.conf(5) for details on configuration options.
# This file should NOT be world readable.
#
include /etc/openldap/schema/core.schema
# Define global ACLs to disable default read access.
# Do not enable referrals until AFTER you have a working directory
# service AND an understanding of referrals.
#referral ldap://root.openldap.org
pidfile /var/run/slapd.pid
argsfile /var/run/slapd.args
# Load dynamic backend modules:
modulepath /usr/lib/openldap/openldap
moduleload back_ldap.la
moduleload back_ldbm.la
moduleload back_passwd.la
moduleload back_shell.la

# Cleartext passwords, especially for the rootdn, should

# The database directory MUST exist prior to running slapd AND

directory /var/lib/ldap/openldap-ldbm
# Indices to maintain
Is it because I don't have any indices? anywhere here is my ldap.conf:
# $OpenLDAP: pkg/ldap/libraries/libldap/ldap.conf,v 1.4.8.6 2000/09/05
