O.k., this was what I was doing when my distro was using BDB 3 and
Openldap needed 4.x. Never had any problems doing it that way; I guess
I'll give it a whirl. It'll be interesting to see whether I have to
rebuild my BDB database - at least I keep my slapcat'ted ldif file up to
date.
Thanks Andreas and Ben :)
