Well, it is Exim-related. ;-)
I compiled Exim with OpenLDAP on one Solaris-server and have no problems
connecting an OpenLDAP-Server to get my Alias-information.
Then I switched to a different Solaris-server, didn't bother about
OpenLDAP and compiled against Solaris-LDAP-libraries. No other changes
in the Makefile and almost the same exim.conf (I just changed the
hostname).

Now I get (exim -d9 -bt adress)
perform_ldap_search: ldap URL=...
server=MYSERVER port=389 sizelimit=0 timelimit=0
Opened connection to LDAP server MYSERVER:389
Binding with user=NULL password=NULL
Start search
ldap search initiation failed

The OpenLDAP-log tells me:
Jul 11 20:34:41 i09pc10 slapd[27452]: connection_get(18)
Jul 11 20:34:41 i09pc10 slapd[7138]: send_ldap_result: 0::
Jul 11 20:34:41 i09pc10 slapd[27452]: connection_get(18)

Which is a rather short connection.

Now I wonder: is it because of the libraries?
And did anybody ever succeed in using exim, compiled with
Solaris-LDAP-libs, to connect to an OpenLDAP-Server?

Is it "normal" that my lookup fails or did I do something wrong?
