Right now I am in my office and the box is in my home...
I will send you the result as soon as I come back to my house. :-)

I forgot to tell you one thing that I changed.

I modified the /etc/sourceforge/local.inc as follows.
(Yes, I removed the "ou=People")

// admin dn - login dn which has permissions to delete entries
// NOT used by web code, only by support utilities
// note that password NOT stored here
// $sys_ldap_admin_dn="cn=admin,ou=People,dc=www,dc=myhome,dc=lan";
$sys_ldap_admin_dn="cn=admin,dc=www,dc=myhome,dc=lan";

and ran install-ldap.sh configure but at first it failed with the
same error. (invalid credential)

Hence I ran "install-ldap.sh purge" and "install-ldap.sh reset"
and ran "install-ldap.sh configure" finally without error.

I think the default sourceforge configuration (local.inc) conflicts
with the default slapd.conf because I didn't change anything except
local.inc.
