This might help you out. It's a little old, but might point you in the right direction...

Yes, here is what I get:

[root@rh init.d]# service ldap status
slapd (pid 23444 23443 23439) is running...
[root@rh init.d]# ldapsearch -x
ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server

	Shouldn't the default slapd.conf at least return something indicating 
	that the server is up and listening?  According to the documentation it 
	looks like it should.

		sorry, dumb answer...just read that yopu started the service...
		Sounds like something in your slapd.conf or ldap.conf...

		I have openldap installed on my Redhat 8.0 box, via the packaged rpm, 
		and I'm trying to go through the "Quick-Start" in the Administrator's Guide.
		
		I start slapd then try ldapsearch -x, and I get the following output:
		
		ldap_bind: Can't contact LDAP server
		
		Does anyone know what's wrong?
