Whenever I log in to my IMAP server using an email client, I receive the 
following message in /var/log/messages:

Sep 20 09:51:44 ltsp dovecot-auth: pam_ldap: could not open secret file 
/etc/ldap.secret (No such file or directory)

The login succeeds.

A few seconds later, I get this string of messages:

Sep 20 09:52:20 ltsp dovecot-auth: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP 
server ldap://127.0.0.1: Server is unwilling to perform
Sep 20 09:52:20 ltsp dovecot-auth: nss_ldap: could not search LDAP 
server - Server is unavailable
Sep 20 09:52:20 ltsp dovecot-auth: pam_ldap: could not open secret file 
/etc/ldap.secret (No such file or directory)
Sep 20 09:52:20 ltsp dovecot-auth: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP 
server ldap://127.0.0.1: Server is unwilling to perform
Sep 20 09:52:20 ltsp dovecot-auth: nss_ldap: failed to bind to LDAP 
server ldap://127.0.0.1: Server is unwilling to perform
Sep 20 09:52:20 ltsp dovecot-auth: nss_ldap: reconnecting to LDAP server 
(sleeping 4 seconds)...

I can't find any references to /etc/ldap.secret in the configuration 
files.. why is it trying to look for the bindpw here? Or, more 
importantly, why is this happening? (;

Thanks,
 Michael
