I suggest you try to use "slapcat > olddn.ldif". After, you can open the

That would certainly be a simple operation for changing the dn suffix
globally, but changing from cn to uid would require manually editing
every single entry.  Is that really the only way?

Writing some perl to do that using regular expressions would be fairly simple. Or perhaps awk if you're inclined.
