[Dovecot] Auth password problem

[Branko Majic]

Now, this answer won't help you, but you might find it useful (I've
been fiddling with slapd access controls and what-not, so this helped
me a lot). :)

The best thing to debug the LDAP issues is to set the olcLogLevel in
the slapd configuration tree to 256 - this way you'd get enough
information to see what's going on when Dovecot tries to talk with the
slapd server, and you won't get overwhelmed by the debugging
information. On Debian Squeeze you'll also have to make sure you've
set-up the log facility for slapd (by default it uses local4). You
could add a file /etc/rsyslog.d/slapd.conf with the following line:

local4.*                /var/log/slapd.log

Did you try logging-in by hand as well to the LDAP server? You could do
it with, say:

ldapwhoami -W -D cn=prueba,ou=Users,dc=royoleal,dc=com -H ldap://localhost/
