Re: Change over to anonymous binds

[Jim C <jcllings@tsunamicomm.net>]

Well I've tweedled with the settings and now it works BUT for some 
reason it only works on the client.
In ldap.conf on the server I have the name of the ldap server set to 
127.0.0.1 but other than that the file is
the same as for the client.  I have all of the same ssl settings and I 
even tried changeing the password format
back to {crypt} to see if that would make a difference... I don't get it.

Clue please?
