ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)



RPM install on Fedora Core 3
Trying to get Open-xchange up and running.
I get the following error message:
ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)

slapd -d99 or -d whatever doesnt have error errno in it anywhere in it's
output.
any ldap* command gives this. Im sure its something small that im
missing.
Im not an openldap guru- this makes about the 5th time ive tried to get
an
openldap server up and running unsucessfully.

Any help is appreciated.

maybe my problem is is that im installing using spanish instructions
and i dont speak 3 words of spanish :)

below are what i believe to be my relevant files ive messed with.

[root@bartlap share]# ldapsearch -x -b 'dc=intermodalcartage,dc=com'

# The next three lines allow use of TLS for encrypting connections using

on

# Sample security restrictions
#       Require integrity protection (prevent hijacking)
#       Require 112-bit (3DES or better) encryption for updates
#       Require 63-bit encryption for simple bind
# security ssf=1 update_ssf=112 simple_bind=64

# Sample access control policy:
#       Root DSE: allow anyone to read it
#       Subschema (sub)entry DSE: allow anyone to read it
#       Other DSEs:
#               Allow self write access
#               Allow authenticated users read access
#               Allow anonymous users to authenticate
#       Directives needed to implement policy:
# access to dn.base="" by * read
# access to dn.base="cn=Subschema" by * read
# access to *
#       by self write
#       by users read
#       by anonymous auth
#
# if no access controls are present, the default policy
# allows anyone and everyone to read anything but restricts
# updates to rootdn.  (e.g., "access to * by * read")
#
# rootdn can always read and write EVERYTHING!
