Hi, This how I enable logging for openldap on red hat. In the /etc/openldap/slapd.conf file add this line.

loglevel 256

In the file /etc/syslog.conf add this line.

local4.debug /var/log/slapd.log

Now your slpad log will be in /var/log/slapd.log

I hope this helps

Hi list,

I installed OpenLdap on Debian Squeeze. When trying to connect to Openldap jxplorer just says: "Opening connection to ldap://192.168.1.102:389". Nothing more happens.

How can I enable logging (in Openldap or jxplorer) and above all how can I connect?

Thank you in advance.

How is that slapd.conf is the main file used in the configuration of openldap. I did a google search and found this. In Ubuntu, which is the Debian family, the location of slapd.conf is here /etc/ldap/slapd.conf. I found this on this page. https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenLDAPServer This page has an install guide for openldap and expains how to setup the logs.

there's no slapd.conf in Debian. That's my problem. All manuals reference to slapd.conf but they use cn=config.
