Openldap listen on localhost

I would want openldap to listen on localhost only. I've searched extensively but cannot see which setting to change. Thanks.

Code:

$ man slapd

and have a look at the -h option.

Yeah, sure...

But how can I set my slapd.conf file so it does start listening to that port only?

Auto-answer: applicable only to Debian (as far as I know)

Change file at /etc/default/slapd and specify:

SLAPD_SERVICES="ldap://127.0.0.1:389/"

That'll do the trick
