You must have compiled this from source because db 4.2 is not available
on a standard Mdk 10.0 system:

[todd@tlyons ~]$ urpmf libdb-
libdb4.1:/usr/lib/libdb-4.1.so
libdb3.3:/usr/lib/libdb-3.3.so
libdb4.1-devel:/usr/lib/libdb-4.1.a
libdb4.1-devel:/usr/lib/libdb-4.1.la
libdb4.1-devel:/usr/lib/libdb-4.so
libdb3.3-devel:/usr/lib/libdb-3.3.a
libdb3.3-devel:/usr/lib/libdb-3.3.la
libdb4.1-static-devel:/usr/lib/libdb-4.1.a

Installed from source or rpm?  Again, it seems like it's from source.
Not that it's bad, just trying to determine exactly what you've done.

openldap by default wants to change user to a non-root user.
