What does the log says?


I have CentOS where I have configured Fedora DS based on OpenLDAP.
I have been connecting from Windows Client but everytime it says "LDAP Server not up".I have captured logs which do get displayed during putty is open too.
Code:
[root@389-ds ~]# tail -f /var/log/messages

Is this an error? or Just system Information.
How can I check if LDAP connectivity is working or not.

I am not certain on this since I have never dealt with LDAP but I suspect some of this is either missing files/programs or permission errors. If I had to take a guess /etc/resolv.conf is not writable (or atleast not writable via vi), certain required networking tools like iptables and ping are failing to work correctly and a DNS query to 10.209.37.91 also failed... some of the other ones I am not certain of, seems there are some kernel module updates it needs to perform as well. I am afraid all I can give are these few guesses.

Guys,
I just installed CentOS with first CD as My Manager suggested me to install the minimum OS < 400 MB.As of now, Fedora DS is installed on this server and 636 port is open.
I did removed few packages so as to reduce the space.
Can anyone suggest me whats the solution?
All I noticed this when I found I am unable to connect through LDAPAdminTool installed on remote Windows Machine which should get connected to this Linux Machine through port 636(SSL).

Those are messages from the kernel audit subsystem that indicate when access to some resource was denied. If you read them from left to right:

avc: denied { write } for pid=5908 comm="vi" name="resolv.conf"

that says, kernel denied a write to pid 5908, command "vi" for file "resolv.conf". So probably someone went to edit /etc/resolv.conf but forgot to su to root. The others are similar, but I don't see anything ldap related there.

All I looked into Fedora DS(389 DS Server) dirsrv logs.
