>Description:
A problem is described in the article:
www.iem.pw.edu.pl/~wielebap/ldap/heimdal/heimdal_doc.pdf
(It also contains instructions how to install kerberos with ldap backend.)

Now heimdal ldap backend uses ldapi:///. As it is not a full path to the socket, LDAP database is not accesible to kerberos. 'kadmin -l' ill not have an access to the ldap database.

My environment:
heimdal-0.6.1
openldap-sasl-server-2.2.15
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
A default location for slapd socket is:
/var/run/openldap/ldapi.

Here is a patch for heimdal port:

-    rc = ldap_initialize((LDAP **) & db->db, "ldapi:///");
+    rc = ldap_initialize((LDAP **) & db->db, "ldapi://%2fvar%2frun%2fopenldap%2
fldapi/");
     if (rc != LDAP_SUCCESS) {
        krb5_set_error_string(context, "ldap_initialize: %s", ldap_err2string(rc
));
        return HDB_ERR_NOENTRY;

You can also download it from:

If you're using heimdal from the base system sources, apply a patch to:
