Noob configuration issues
I'm trying to set up openldap, following the administrators guide and
quickstart howto. I'm running NetBSD-1.5.2 and using the pkgsrc install.
My slapd.conf file looks like this:
database ldbm
suffix "dc=mcleodlake,dc=com"
rootdn "cn=kmastin,dc=mcleodlake,dc=com"
rootpw hash:/etc/passwd
directory /var/openldap/ldap-data
index objectClass eq
I have a directory with permissions set to 0700: /var/openldap/ldap-data
After starting slapd:
bash-2.05# /usr/local/libexec/slapd
... or even
bash-2.05# su root -c /usr/local/libexec/slapd
(doesn't matter which one I do, the results are the same)
In testing the config I get this:
bash-2.05# ldapsearch -x -b '' -s base '(objectclass=*)' namingContexts
ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server
ps shows no slapd server running. There was no error when starting the
server, which it does for every other server daemon I've configured on
this system (apache, qmail, etc.)
I searched the archives, but the closest match I found was where the admin
alrady had openldap running and changed IP addresses or some other config,
but none for the first install.
Any ideas?
TIA
