No ldaplist just depends on a successfull creation of the /var/ldap/* files.

That's ok

Nope this is the main problem.

Could you do a "ldapclient -u", stop ldapcachemgr/nscd, remove everything
from /var/ldap.
Then try the first ldapsearch test queuery but this time authenticating as
proxyagent.

What value has "nisdomain" in the FDS tree?

Try the ldapclient -v -P... line again.
