slurpd -d9 --- Invalid credentials

[Steven Wong <slqwong@yahoo.com>]

I'm not sure if I am missing anything or configured something wrong.

Here is the setup I have  3 LDAP servers
1 LDAP master (server1) - RH 7.3 OpenLDAP (openldap-servers-2.0.27-2.7.)
1 LDAP slave (server2) - RH 7.3 OpenLDAP (openldap-servers-2.0.27-2.7.)
1 LDAP slave (server3) - FC 5 (openldap-servers-2.3.19-4)
1 LDAP client RH 7.3 (client1)
1 LDAP client FC5 (client2)

Using SSL/TLS.  Each LDAP server sign it's own CA cert
"su - bmodi" or ldapsearch, all appears to work, whether I put which ldap server in the /etc/ldap.conf and /etc/openldap/ldap.conf file on any of the LDAP server itself.
examples  ( only 1 LDAP server is in the ldap.conf file at a time )
server1 is client of server2 or server3 or itself 
server2 is client of server1 or server3 or  itself
server3 is client of server1 or server2 or itself
client1 or client2 are clients of either of the LDAP servers ( one at a time )
( ldapserach command ran - ldapsearch -D "cn=manager,dc=pro-unlimited,dc=com" -W -x -H ldaps://<server1 or server2 or server3> )

Some config layout info
/etc/openldap/cacerts/cacert.pem have all three LDAP server's certificate in it
/etc/openldap/server/ contains servercrt.pem and serverkey.pem
/etc/openldap/client/ contains clientcrt.pem and clientkey.pem
/etc/ldap.secret contains the passwd of the rootdn user
/root/.ldaprc contains the following ( on master or client  )
TLS_CERT        /etc/openldap/client/clientcrt.pem
TLS_KEY         /etc/openldap/client/clientkey.pem

Yet the problem appears to be with slurpd now, where I get the following while running "/usr/sbin/slurpd -d9"  on the LDAP master (server1)

Can someone point me in a direction or suggestions as to how to move forward?
If any additional info is needed, please let me know!
