I have setup Ldap Server on RHEL 6.3.
I have setup Ldap Client on RHEL 6.3 KVM.
When I run the command : #ldapsearch -x -b "dc=example,dc=com" -h 172.24.0.254
I get the desired result.
Code:

However, when I try to run the command : # getent passwd or getent passwd ldapuser1, I don't see the ldap users.
I have added ldap in /etc/nsswitch.conf file and setup nslcd.conf file and restarted the nslcd service.
Also, the logs on client are:
Code:
lOct 12 18:46:08 station1 nslcd[2635]: [e685fb] ldap_start_tls_s() failed: Connect error (uri="ldap://172.24.0.254")
