Hi Anyways, after setting slapd to start before in rc.d, I was able to get my machine up. Slapd would still give me the following error: nss_ldap: could not search LDAP server - Server is unavailable However slapd is up and running by the time I get a login prompt so the important issue is out of the way. Now to figure out why that message comes up.
