thx, Howard!

that makes sense! but if bindpw is not an OpenLDAP directive, why OpenLDAP is so quite to accept it? It should tell the configuration errors in the conf file, right? :P

btw, do you know what are those configuration files using BINDPW for? actually I'm trying to reply the configuration error reported.

It is most likely the configuration for nss_ldap, found in /etc/ldap.conf, while openLDAP clients are configured in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf.
