everything was goin great till the end. when i got to this part:

Code:

Now lets test out to see if qmail-ldap sees that new user
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-ldaplookup -m testemail@domain.com
You should get something that looks like your email.ldif file

i instead got the following:

Code:

[root@undergroundinfection /var/qmail/control] /var/qmail/bin/qmail-ldaplookup -m j@undergroundinfection.net
qmail-ldaplookup: fatal: qldap_bind: ldap server down or unreachable

 

thoughts, ideas, possibilities, files needed to help me? I'm stumped and my head feels fried.
