Thanks for suggestion. However still no luck.
Yes _e3user was password. I tried -W and -w too.
BTW, let me again repeat the steps done for configuration
- Install openldap
- Change /etc/openldap/ldap.conf property file
- Tried to login to linux box using LDAP credential -> it did not work
- Tried running authconfig with enableldap, enableldapauth etc... with -update all filter
- Tried to login to linux box using LDAP credential -> Linux box unexpectedly closed
the connection and putty window closed
- Tried to run ldapsearch.....here I am now
Do you think, there are some steps or configurations I am missing.
I am basically not looking for ldapsearch command to run rather I just wanted peoples
having ldap credential easily login to the linux box.
regards,
Rb

Watch the space:
ldapsearch -x -H
ldap://xxx.yyy.com -D "cn=Directory Manager"
"(objectclass=*)" -W _e3user
(assuming _e3user is your password. maybe you should try with -w also)

Try:
ldapsearch -x -H ldap://xxx.yyy.com-D "cn=Directory Manager"
"(objectclass=*)" -W _e3user

>>>As it says in this error message: "a successful bind must be completed on

search in it.
