Re: ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server (-1)

Kristen, please stay on the mailing list you started the thread. Don't e-mail me solely personally.

Thanks for your help. I can't seem to be able to start the server with the -d flag. Here is what I tried:

su root -c /usr/local/libexec/slapd -d 65535

I also tried:

su root -d 65535 -c /usr/local/libexec/slapd

And it complains in both cases that -d is an invalid option.

Using -d works for me. Which version of OpenLDAP is this?

Can you post any output it produces?

Ciao, Michael.
