pam_ldap auth failure for telnet - sorry for the repeated question.

["Alexei Monastyrnyi" <alexeim@orcsoftware.com>]

Hi List,
sorry for the annying postings but...
I can't understand what's wrong with my configuration.

I'm running Open LDAP 2.1.17 on Solaris 9 box. Now I'm trying to use the
same box as client, configuring telnet auth via local LDAP.
I have valid LDAP entry "erik" with valid password (I've double checked it
with LDAP GUI Editor)

File /etc/pam.conf has lines
telnet  auth sufficient /usr/lib/security/pam_unix.so.1
telnet  auth required   /usr/lib/security/pam_ldap.so.1 use_first_pass

File //etc/ldap.conf  has lines
host 127.0.0.1
base dc=orcsoftware,dc=com

slapd is up and running with option -d 1, listening on port 389.

Trying to telnet to the box, I have
SunOS 5.9
login: erik
Password:
Login incorrect

And in syslog I can see
Apr 17 16:56:22 er login: [ID 244269 auth.error] pam_ldap: error trying to
bind
as user "uid=erik,ou=People,dc=orcsoftware,dc=com" (Invalid credentials)

I'm quite new in LDAP and maybe it's a bit silly question.
But I do not believe that nobody has any hint of how to overcome it. :-)
Or?

Really, thanks in advance for ANY clue!

Sincerely,
Alexei Monastyrnyi,
