I attempted to fire up the LDAP server that came with RHL73 for the first
time today.  I made modifications to my /etc/openldap/slapd.conf and used
/etc/init.d/ldap to start the daemon.  I'm getting this message:

# service ldap start
Starting slapd: /etc/openldap/slapd.conf: Permission denied
[FAILED]

I had my permissions for slapd.conf set to 700 per recommendations from a
book and the owner was set to root; this message goes away if I change it to
740.  I also do not get any messages if I run "slapd -f slapd.conf" from the
command line.  Any have any ideas why this occurs?  I thought init scripts
were always run as root.

Also I have my rootpw in slapd.conf encrypted.  Would this be acceptable if
my permissions were 740?
