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.

I hope everything is ok. I am using postfix with dovecot 1.31. I am using dovecot lda and quota plugins. IS there any command about it? Thanx and best regards

Hi,
I have configured dovecot for auth_bind against an LDAP server on the localhost and I'm seeing the following error in my dovecot logs:
dovecot: Apr 30 09:03:18 Error: auth(default): LDAP: ldap_result() failed: Can't contact LDAP server dovecot: Apr 30 09:03:27 Error: auth(default): LDAP: ldap_result() failed: Can't contact LDAP server ... and so on ...
When I turned on LDAP logging, this was what slapd logged.
Apr 30 09:05:00 recess3 slapd[14387]: [ID 848112 local4.debug] conn=3555 fd=11 ACCEPT from IP=127.0.0.1:47299 (IP=0.0.0.0:389) Apr 30 09:05:00 recess3 slapd[14387]: [ID 215403 local4.debug] conn=3555 op=0 BIND dn="cn=root,o=home" method=128 Apr 30 09:05:00 recess3 slapd[14387]: [ID 600343 local4.debug] conn=3555 op=0 BIND dn="cn=root,o=home" mech=SIMPLE ssf=0 Apr 30 09:05:00 recess3 slapd[14387]: [ID 588225 local4.debug] conn=3555 op=0 RESULT tag=97 err=0 text=
May I know what is causing Dovecot to log that it Can't contact the LDAP server when slapd does see the incoming connection.
Strangely, everything is working fine, my users are able to authenticate against LDAP; the UIDs, home directories, quotas etc are all picked up correctly. It's just the annoying auth(default) errors that keep popping up every 20 seconds or so.
Thanking in advance if anyone has any ideas.
Cheers.
