Nope, I used ldap for the directory server, which seems to work fine, and was 
trying to use 'ldapas' for the admin server.

$ ls -lF /tmp/file2dDMoZ
-rw-r--r--  1 root root 0 Dec  6 13:12 /tmp/file2dDMoZ

An empty file, owned by root.

Then would this be the place to suggest making the suggested default "ldap"

trouble of pulling out his hair in handfuls when he saw important system 
files owned by the "nobody" user.
