Re: Connections timing out to OpenLDAP server

Well, the first thing I suggest is to try to duplicate the
problem using OpenLDAP command line tools (on the system(s)
which these other clients are running on).   If you're
unable to, that would suggest the problem is with these
particular clients, not the OpenLDAP server (or network).
