You can use '-l' to have different instances of slapd log as different
syslog users.  See slapd(8) and syslog(8) for further details.

Please direct further sofware usage questions to the most appropriate
mailing lists (openldap-technical for OpenLDAP software; Syslog-specific
lists for syslog(8) detaild usage).  This ITS will be closed.
