I recently changed my root password, but when I restart Ldap (openldap-2.2.13) I couldn't log in with Ldap users to any application that is on this server.
in /var/log/httpd/ssl_error_log I can find a lot of error like:
[Tue Jun 01 02:27:24 2010] [warn] [client 89.138.98.214] [26762] auth_ldap authenticate: user foo authentication failed; URI /svn-clients/clients/myclient/ [LDAP: ldap_simple_bind_s() failed][Can't contact LDAP server]
I guess there is a linkage between user root and the Ldap configuration, I also changed the 
rootpw entry in slapd.conf, but this doesn't seem to make things better.
