-rw------- 1 root root 15 2006-05-18 06:49 /etc/ldap.secret
is only useful if you are using the rootdn to connect to the ldapserver. I'm 
using another dn to bind to the ldapserver. The password for this user has to 
be set in the ldap.conf file.

what i have in my ldap.conf is
binddn cn=*****,o=itf,c=be
bindpw **************
and no rootbinddn entry

if someone can get the rootdn password for your ldap server you can get
in serious trouble, so it is not a great idea to put it somewhere on the
client computer (even when it's only readable for root)

Is it possible to reopen this bug?
