Topic: [Solved] LDAP bind fails -- was 127.0.0.1 deny problem

Using iRedmail .72, Ubuntu 10.04, LDAP.

Encountering these fatal errors:
postfix/proxymap[5875]: warning: dict_ldap_connect: Unable to bind to server ldap://127.0.0.1:389 as cn=vmail,dc=codexwilkes,dc=com: -1 (Can't contact LDAP server)
postfix/trivial-rewrite[6103]: fatal: proxy:ldap:/etc/postfix/ldap_virtual_alias_maps.cf(0,lock|fold_fix): table lookup problem

OpenLAP is running (have tried restarting), and I can browse LDAP using Apache Directory Studio using the same credentials.  What else should I be looking for?

Re: [Solved] LDAP bind fails -- was 127.0.0.1 deny problem

By way of context, this is a long running server, and there have been no mail config changes.  I have increased the debug level in ldap_virtual_alias_maps.cf to 1 but I can't see anything in the logs which point to the problem.

Re: [Solved] LDAP bind fails -- was 127.0.0.1 deny problem

Well, the problem turned out to be simple: for some reason all connections to 127.0.0.1 were being blocked (via /etc/hosts.deny).  My LDAP test was invalid because I was addressing a different (cached) IP.  And, slapd was only the first error, not the only error, which confused me initially.
