[K12OSN] LDAP under OS X

[Ryan Collins <k12osn collinsoft com>]

I set up my ltsp server to authenticate and mount user's home directories
through nfs (thanks to Eric's directions he posted to the list).

But I'm seeing something strange. slapd on OS X is throwing out the
following error:
slapd[11061]: Bad IPREMOTEPORT value

It shows up about 100 times when a class logs in (less than 20 clients).
Slapd would then die.

I've done the following to fix it:
1. Put:
ps auxw | grep slapd | grep -v grep > /dev/null || /usr/libexec/slapd
In crontab to run every minute to restart slapd if it dies
2. Turned off "Cache User Info" in the authentication setup program on the
ltsp server.

As soon as I turned off Cache User info, slapd hasn't died, and the ltsp and
OS X machine have been running fine (but I still get the above error msg). I
didn't find anything about "Bad IPREMOTEPORT value" on Google. I even
downloaded the openldap source and couldn't find the error message. I did
find some stuff about SASL, so I think that might be the culprit, but it is
way over my head now.

Anyone else see anything like this?
