 I was following the documentation to setup openLDAP stuff -

You should read the OpenLDAP Admin Guide to get the basic concepts not 3rd-party docs which might be distribution-specific and/or wrong/outdated.

http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin24/

Or for 2.3.x:

http://www.openldap.org/doc/admin23/

I got the following message: Can't contact LDAP Server


This means the LDAP server was unreachable.

How to overcome this problem??


Hard to say without knowing anything about your setup at all...

Ciao, Michael.
