Yes it is fixed,

But in your fix, only the rootpw password works. If we have the rootdn also=
 as a dn stored inside the ldap tree then openldap does not tries to bind t=
o the dn of the tree if the rootpw is incorrect

if we use the same code segment of bind.cpp written for back-bdb which is:

        /* allow noauth binds */
        switch ( be_rootdn_bind( op, NULL ) ) {
        case LDAP_SUCCESS:
                /* frontend will send result */
                return rs->sr_err;
        default:
                break;
        }
And the rootpw is not matched, then slapd will continue to search the ldap =
tree and if it finds a dn and its userPassword matches, then it authenticat=
es. If an appropriate dn / password is not found in the tree, then it throu=
ghs the invalid credentials error.

Maybe the bind-dbd way is more correct?
