1) Connectionless LDAP is unsupported.

2) Connectionless LDAP only accepts Search requests.

3) Use a single process with multiple listeners. See the slapd(8) manpage for
details.
  slapd -h "ldap:// cldap://";
will probably work.

Nothing in this ITS is indicative of a bug in OpenLDAP. This ITS will be
closed. If you need further help see the documentation or post a question on
the openldap-software mailing list.
