Hi,
Sorry, I forgot to mention I am on 1.0.0 on a Solaris 10 box connecting
to a OpenLDAP server on localhost. :)
Just cannot figure out why it is printing these messages though everything
seems to be working fine; users are connecting to download e-mails. And
when I logged slapd connections, slapd does pick up those connections on
localhost.
Cheers.
