Sorry for not providing more info here; I sent this info to Brian May instead of the bug tracking mail.
Here's the info i sent to Brian: I am using the version currently in lenny: # dpkg -l | grep -e libldap -e slapd ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.10-3 OpenLDAP libraries ii libldap2-dev 2.4.10-3 OpenLDAP development libraries ii slapd 2.4.10-3 OpenLDAP server (slapd) BTW, I have a similar config working OK on an etch server (actually, the lenny box is just a test machine). As you say, there was no need to make any symlink in etch, it worked "out-of-the-box". Looking inside /etc/init.d/slapd on the lenny box, I see the following lines: # Backward compatibility with OpenLDAP 2.1 client libraries. if [ ! -h /var/run/ldapi ] && [ ! -e /var/run/ldapi ] ; then ln -s slapd/ldapi /var/run/ldapi fi But it looks like the opposite to the fix that needs to be done (/var/run/ldapi is the real socket, and var/run/slapd/ldapi is the symlink that needs to be created). __________________________________________________ Correo Yahoo!
