Can someone tell me whats wrong here.. I had a working ldap/samba server and after I restarted the machine due to a power outage the slapd service wont start back up.
Here are what the logs show when I try to bring slapd back online: Apr 8 14:06:23 mdc slapd[12286]: @(#) $OpenLDAP: slapd 2.3.43 (Apr 8 2010 13:58:40) $ Apr 8 14:06:23 mdc root@mdc: /var/tmp/portage/net-nds/openldap-2.3.43/work/openldap-2.3.43/servers/slapd

Are you sure the database directory (and all of its contents) for dc=mydomain,dc=org is writable by the user slapd runs as? Looks like it isn't ...
