LDAP Server installed - ldapadd, ldapsearch etc. kills slapd process, GQ works partially.

Greetings!

I recently installed my OpenLDAP Server 2.1.25 with BDB 4.2.52 on RedHat 9,
and the LDAP Server seems to run. I'm able to browse the LDAP Server with GQ,
but i can't create entries. If i try to create an entry with ldapadd from a ldif file, i get
the following error:

"ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Can't contact LDAP server."

Installed SASL Version: 2.1.10-4

Loglevel 1 Message of ldapadd:

test -d 1

ldap_pvt_sasl_getmech

ldap_sasl_interactive_bind_s: Can't contact LDAP server (81)

IP Tables Firewall is deactivated. As soon as i try to create an entry or search the
database with ldapadd / ldapsearch, the slapd process is killed, and GQ cannot
browse the directory server anymore.

Surely my fault, but i can't locate the problem. Any help appreciated, thanks!
