OK, I changed the rootpw entry to 'secret' and then restarted slapd and
tried again this time typing 'secret' as the password. I still get the
same error though: ldap_bind: Invalid credentials
I think it is amazing just how difficult it is to do what the openldap
documents purport to be simple. The only good thing about this is that
I don't get very far so it doesn't take long to test a different
possible solution. Perhaps there is something unique to the debian
woody binaries that means that the openldap quick start guide doesn't
work: http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin/quickstart.html
Cheers.
Mark.
