Assuming you have migrated all of the content from o=x,c=us on the old 
Netscape server to live under dc=group1,dc=x,dc=y on the OpenLDAP server, 
which you would like to have visible to clients searching the new server 
under o=x,c=us, you should consider using back-relay as the backend for 
o=x,c=us.

See the man page for slapd-relay for details.
