I've finally completed my server setup and now I'm focusing on the client configurations (with TLS).
I'm using the Buchan RPMs (openldap 2.3.39) for RHEL4 and it creates an /etc/openldap2.3 directory. I also have the base openldap (2.2.x) rpms installed (originally) and it creates the base /etc/openldap directory.
After doing an strace, I see that /etc/openldap/ldap.conf is used.... but I want use /etc/openldap2.3/ldap.conf file, how do I switch my ldap client to look here?
I'm using Buchan's rpms (actually built from srpms) 2.3 on RHEL5 and 2.4 on FC6. Buchan's slapd is actually called slapd2.[3|4], not slapd. Similarly all stuff that Buchan produces has 2.[3|4] tacked onto it, including the man pages. If you do a 'strings ldap2.3 | less' on your rig and look for /etc, you'll see that the default config dirs are built into it.
My guess is you're running the wrong slapd, even starting the wrong service. The correct service for you to start is ldap2.3. Also, make sure that the stuff you have in /etc/sysconfig/ldap2.3 is correct.
