That would add an eq, sub, and pres index for member on all *new* entries 
and modifications.

You have to run slapindex after adding an index to slapd.conf, and you have 
to stop slapd before running slapindex.

Note that you may not need all of those indices for member.  I suggest 
reading up on what "eq", "pres", and "sub" means...
