Posted to the Debian-68k group since the problem is only showing on
these systems. Have a similar installation on a 486/83 running RedHat 9
and can successfully be referred via browser using the following URI:
ldap://192.168.1.9/dc=openldap,dc=org.
Again, can run ldapsearch from local machine as well as remote Linux
machine using this command:
ldapsearch -x -b 'dc=example,dc=com' '(objectclass=*)' -h 192.168.1.10
When attempt same access via browser as with the RedHat PC installation,
get error.
No progress since the last posting. Still seeking assistance. Thanks.
