humm well looking at the config file the first thing that i notice is this ... # The base of your directory in database #1 suffix "dc=rahim-dale,dc=org" rootdn "cn=admin,dc=toronto,dc=ontario,dc=ca" your root dn isn't in the base of your ldap tree, this should probuly be something like ... suffix "dc=rahim-dale,dc=org" rootdn "cn=admin,dc=rahim-dale,dc=org" try it n let us know what happens :).
