Ah, good point. I have been working with a test system not configured for LDAP authentication, so I didn't check out that functionality. When you say "still log in as root to fix this", did you have to make additional edits after you got slapd running again (as you mentioned in your original problem description)? That is, were you locked out just because slapd wasn't running, and then back to normal again once you got slapd restarted, or did you have to go back and fix the permission settings before LDAP authentication started working again? (If you did have to fix permissions, what exactly did you have to change to get that part working?)
