Q: OD wrong ip + unable to alter passwords

HI I have a 10.8 server which has been running fine for a long time.

However now there are a few authentication issues with one email account and looking at Open Directory it has the wrong IP address and I can't change passwords for users at all.

I can authenticate as diradmin and admin but not change any passwords.

I have tried....

sudo launchctl unload /System/LIbrary/LaunchDaemons/org.openldap.slapd.plist

sudo db_recover -cv -h /var/db/openldap/openldap-data/

sudo /usr/libexec/slapd -Tt

sudo db_recover -cv -h /var/db/openldap/authdata/

sudo /usr/libexec/slapd -Tt

sudo launchctl load /System/LIbrary/LaunchDaemons/org.openldap.slapd.plist

which recovers data and all seems to go well but still OD playing up.

I have gone through the FQDN wizard and also used change to set the ipadddress and FQDN all seemingly OK... but still the OD has the wrong IP address and can't alter passwords....
