Hi,
Could it be due to SELinux enforcing?

Could you check with "getenforce" command to see if this is the case?
If so, could you check your /var/log/audit/auth.log (or similar) and tell if you see something wrong in it?

Redhat may not, but it's not uncommon for other OSs to do so.

I'm assuming that the error message you are seeing is permissions related,
possibly due to the fact that slapd is running under a different effective
gid when you start it from the command line versus when you start it from
an init script.

One way to trouble shoot that is to explicitly specify a gid (-g) from your
init script and your command line.
