Hello Jeffrey,
Sorry I didn't get back with you sooner but I have been out of town. I really appreciate the suggestion but I tried that a couple of times in the process of starting over.
I have tried setting ldap up several times in the past with about as much success. Guess I'll put it down for a while.
Thanks to everyone for all the help!!!!!

I just experienced what sounds like your problem... My BDB file were corrupted, so to fix the issue I simply deleted everything in the data directory and then ran slapadd to restore and recreate the files. Immediately my LDAP server started working again. I hope this helps you. The only way I saw this was a problems was by running strace on slapd and watching where it hung.

OK. I took the slapd.conf that you had posted earlier, and
I was able
to get it to work on a CentOS 4.1 box without too much
trouble (clean
up a typo in the rootdn name and a cut and paste issue). I had to comment out some stuff in /etc/openldap/ldap.conf.
Something truly odd
is going on there. The fact that ldap is starting but not
creating tcp
sockets is quite weird.
Have you tried rebooting? (I know, I know :) Sometimes
system updates
can cause subtle issues from time to time. Maybe something is goofy with the network on your machine. Have you been starting
and stopping
the network service? Can you ping localhost? I have seen some linux boxes (been a while, though) forget about how to talk to
localhost and
it caused all sorts of weird behavior.
As a shot in the dark, are you running with selinux enabled? It has caused many a subtle problem in which a configuration that should "just work" has failed to work. Try running setenforce 0 and then restarting ldap. I run my machines with selinux=0 on the
kernel line
in grub.conf
