It has to do with the default firewall setup, which shouldn't ever
affect LDAP client operation.

Good advice.  I've just checked that setting my own userPassword
data to "{crypt}$1$saltines$0zSZmGIqyWj5ouZGdTD.B." allows me to
log in using "password" as a password, so I suspect a configuration
problem somewhere.

Does connecting to the server using ldapsearch, and binding to the
user's entry using simple authentication, work?
