Dear list,

Yet another newbie having trouble setting up openldap!

On Debian Lenny with ip 10.0.2.6 I have set up my openldap server listening on port 389 . From here I can do a ldapsearch and getent passw showing ldap is working.

From the client I can do: ldapsearch -x -W -b 'dc=pdc,dc=com' -D 'cn=admin,dc=pdc,dc=com' -H 'ldap://10.0.2.6:389/' 'objectclass=*' : Works! telnet 10.0.2.6 389 : Works! getent passwd shows no ldap entries.

Running nslcd in debug shows:
