Unable to get information from a non local host LDAP server

I have some problems getting nss_ldap to work. When I type "getent passwd" on
the client I get the following error in the syslog:

Mar 28 14:30:30 localhost getent: nss_ldap: could not connect to any LDAP
server as (null) - Can't contact LDAP server

The setup works when I use a openldap server running on the same host, but
not when I try to use slapd from a different host.

Is it possible to increase the amount of logging information from nss_ldap?
Other debugging tips? I can query the remote ldap server with ldapsearch
from the client  so I think the server is okay.
