Description of problem: service ldap start fails and does not output any error.

Install openldap-servers 2. service ldap start Actual results: No error output, but init script fails due to missing slurpd binary. Expected results: slapd should be started Additional info: slurpd has been deprecated in openldap 2.4 and is no longer included.

Where did you get the /etc/init.d/ldap script from? I just checked that openldap-servers-2.4.11-1.fc10 (i.e. latest in rawhide) comes with init script which does not contain any 'slurpd'. It seems to me there is something wrong in your system. It's possible that RPM did not replace old initscript with new one, could you please check it? Please run 'rpm -q openldap-servers' and 'rpm -V openldap-servers' and review results.
Hi Jan, you're absolutely right. Somehow I switched the ldap init script with an older one. Sorry for the noise.
